      The start function is operated by simply pressing the engine switch while carrying the key. When the engine switch is pressed, the power management control ECU turns on/off the ACC relay, IG1 relay, and IG2 relay to switch the power source pattern.


      • The power source pattern changes depending on depression of the brake pedal and the shift lever position.
