The POWER button may be used to stop the power system due to an emergency situation even while driving. If you must stop the power system, choose one of the following operations:
The steering wheel will not lock. However, because turning off the power system disables the power assist the power system provides to the steering and braking systems, it will require significantly more physical effort and time to steer and slow the vehicle. Use both feet on the brake pedal to slow down the vehicle and stop immediately in a safe place.
The gear position automatically changes to (P) after the vehicle comes to a complete stop. Then, the power mode changes to VEHICLE OFF.
Do not press the button while driving unless it is absolutely necessary for the power system to be switched off.
