Jeep Wrangler: Normal Starting / To Turn Off The Engine Using ENGINE START/STOP Button

  1. Place the gear selector in PARK, then push and release the ENGINE START/STOP button.
  2. The ignition will return to the OFF mode.
  3. If the gear selector is not in PARK (with vehicle stopped) and the ENGINE START/ STOP button is pushed once, the transmission will automatically select PARK and the engine will turn off while the ignition will remain in the ACC mode (NOT the OFF mode). Never leave a vehicle out of the PARK position, or it could roll.
  4. If the gear selector is in NEUTRAL, and the vehicle speed is below 5 mph (8 km/h), pushing the START/STOP button once will turn the engine off. The ignition will remain in the ACC mode.

NOTE:

The system will automatically time out and the ignition will cycle to the OFF mode after 30 minutes of inactivity if the ignition is left in the ACC or RUN (engine not running) mode and the transmission is in PARK.
