• Electric power consumption is high, such
as when the rear window demister or oth-
er  electrical  components  are  operating  or
the blower speed is set to a high setting.
• Battery  voltage  or  battery  performance  is low
• Check  engine  warning  lamp  is  illumina-
ted or the “ ”

l If the Auto Stop & Go (AS&G) system oper-
ates  while  the  air  conditioning  is  operating,
both the engine and the air conditioning com-
pressor  will  stop.  Therefore,  only  the  blower
will operate.
l If  the  demisting  function  and  the  Auto  Stop
&  Go  (AS&G)  system  are  needed  at  the
same  time,  it  is  recommended  to  set  the
mode selection dial to the Foot/demister posi-
tion.
Refer  to  “Mode  selection  dial”  on  page
5-02.
l If  the  air  conditioning  is  operating,  set  the
temperature  control  dial  higher  to  lengthen
the  time  that  the  engine  is  stopped  automati-
cally. Automatically restarting the engine

system. Pay attention, otherwise an unex-
pected accident might occur when the en-
gine restarts. • Vehicle  speed  is  3  km/h  (2  mph)  orhigher when coasting down a slope
