• The acceleration response may be
slightly reduced as the accelerator
pedal is depressed moderately.
• The air conditioner performance
may be limited.
• The shift pattern of the automatic
transmission may change.
• The engine noise may get louder.
The above situations are normal
conditions when the Active ECO sys-
tem is activated to improve fuel effi-
ciency.Limitation of Active ECO opera-
tion:
If the following conditions occur while
Active ECO is operating, the system
operation is limited even though
there is no change in the ECO indi-
cator.
• When the coolant temperature is
low:
The system will be limited until
engine performance becomes nor-
mal.
• When driving up a hill:
The system will be limited to gain
power when driving uphill because
engine torque is restricted.
• When using the automatic trans-
mission Sports mode:
The system will be limited accord-
ing to the shift location.
SPORT mode
SPORT mode focuses on
dynamic driving by auto-
matically controlling the
steering wheel, engine
and transmission system.

mode. To turn on the SPORT
mode, press the DRIVE MODE
button again.
• If the system is activated:
- After accelerating and releasing
the accelerator pedal, the gear and
engine speed RPM may not drop
as soon as in NORMAL mode.
- Up-shifting is delayed.

A vehicle ahead cannot be recog-
nized correctly by the sensor if any of
following occurs:
- When the vehicle is pointing
upwards due to overloading in the
trunk
- While the steering wheel is operat-
ing
- When driving to one side of the lane
- When driving on narrow lanes or on
curves
Apply the brake or accelerator pedal
if necessary.• Your vehicle may accelerate when
a vehicle ahead of you disappears.
• When you are warned that the
vehicle ahead of you is not detect-
ed, drive with caution.• When vehicles are at a standstill
and the vehicle in front of you
changes to the next lane, be care-
ful when your vehicle starts to
move because it may not recog-
nize the stopped vehicle in front of
you.

This Lane Departure Warning
System detects the lane with the
sensor at the front windshield and
warns you when your vehicle leaves
the lane.
LANE DEPARTURE WARNING SYSTEM (LDWS) (IF EQUIPPED)
ODH053029
ODH053030
Take the following precautions
when using the Lane Departure
Warning System (LDWS):
•ALWAYS check the road con-
ditions. The LDWS does not
make the vehicle change
lanes.
•Do not turn the steering wheel
suddenly if the LDWS warns
that your vehicle is leaving the
lane.
•If the sensor cannot detect the
lane or if the vehicle speed
does not exceed 60 km/h (38
mph), the LDWS will not be
able to notify you if the vehi-
cle leaves the lane.
•If your vehicle has window tint
or other types of coating and
accessory on the front wind-
shield, the LDWS may not
work properly.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•Do not allow any water or liq-
uid to contact the LDWS sen-
sor or the sensor may be dam-
aged.
•Do not remove the LDWS
parts and do not damage the
sensor by a strong impact.
•Do not put objects that reflect
light on the dash board.
•The operation of the LDWS
can be affected by several fac-
tors (including environmental
conditions). It is the responsi-
bility of the driver to pay
attention to the roadway and
to maintain the vehicle in its
lane at all times.

and all the conditions to activate
the LKAS are satisfied (green
steering wheel indicator will illumi-
nate and the LKAS indicator light

is a system to prevent the driver
from leaving the lane. However,
the driver should not solely rely
on the system but always check
the road conditions when driving.

are met.
The system will be cancelled when:
• Vehicle speed is below 60 km/h
(37.3 mph) and over 180 km/h
(111.8 mph).
• Only one lane line is detected.
• Using the turn signal to change
lanes. If you change lanes without
the turn signal on, the steering
wheel might be controlled.
• The hazard warning flasher is on.
• The width of the lane is below 2.8
m and over 4.5 m.
• ESC (Electronic Stability Control)
is activated.
• When the system is on or after
changing a lane, drive in the mid-
dle of the lane.
• The steering will not be assisted
when you drive fast on a sharp
curve.
• The steering will not be assisted
when you change lanes fast.
• The steering will not be assisted
when you brake suddenly.
DRIVER'S ATTENTION
The driver must be cautious in the
below situations may not work prop-

rain, stain, a puddle or other fac-
tors.
• The brightness outside changes
suddenly such as when entering or
exiting a tunnel.
• The headlamps are not on at night
or in a tunnel, or light level is low.
• It is difficult to distinguish the color
of the lane marking from the road
or the lane line is damaged or indis-
tinct.
• Driving on a steep grade or a curve.
• Light such as street light, sunlight
or oncoming vehicle light reflects
from the water on the road.
• The lens or windshield is covered
