Driving the vehicle

Switching off the engine

~1min read

When the engine is idling, turn the key to the "Stop" St position.

Never leave the vehicle with a child (or animal) inside, even for a very short time, if the card or key is inside the vehicle. They could endanger themselves or others by starting the engine, operating equipment such as the power windows, or locking the doors. Risk of serious injury. Never switch off the engine before the vehicle has come to a complete stop; switching off the engine deactivates the brake booster, power steering..., as well as passive safety devices such as airbags. Removing the key from the ignition switch activates the steering lock.
