Lincoln Nautilus: Starting and Stopping the Engine / Starting the Engine
Starting a Gasoline Engine
Before starting your vehicle, check the
following:
- Make sure that the headlamps and
electrical accessories are off.
- Make sure that the parking brake is on.
- Make sure that the transmission is in park
(P).
- Fully press the brake pedal.
Note: Do not touch the accelerator
pedal.

- Press the push button ignition switch.
Note: The engine may continue
cranking for
up to 15 seconds or until it starts.
Note: The engine takes longer to start at
lower temperatures. It may crank for several
seconds when very cold.
Restarting the Engine After Stopping it
The system allows you to start the engine
within 10 seconds of switching it off, even if
it does not detect a valid passive key.
Within 10 seconds of switching the engine
off, fully press the brake pedal and press the
push button ignition switch. After 10 seconds,
you can no longer start the engine if the
system does not detect a valid passive key.
When you start the engine, it remains running
until you press the push button ignition
switch, even if your vehicle does not detect
a valid passive key. If you open and close a
door when the engine is running, the system
searches for a valid passive key.
Switching the Ignition Off
When the ignition is on or in accessory mode,
press the push button ignition switch once
without your foot on the brake pedal...
