■ Automatic engine start function
In the following situations, the engine may start even without the clutch pedal
being depressed after the “ECO” indicator flashes for a few seconds.
●The brake pedal is pumped or strongly depressed.
● The air conditioning system is being used or turned on.
● Vehicles with an automatic air c onditioning system only: The windshield
defogger is turned on.
● The battery is not sufficiently charged.
● The vehicle starts to roll on an incline.
■ Automatic reactivation of the Stop & Start system
Even if the Stop & Start system is disabled by the “ECO OFF” switch, it will
be automatically re-enabled once the engine switch is turned to the “LOCK”
position then to the “START” position (vehicles without a smart entry & start
system) or the “ENGINE START STOP” switch is turned to OFF then the
engine is started (vehicles with a smart entry & start system).
■ The Stop & Start system protection feature
When an excessively loud sound is being projected by the audio system, the
audio system may be automatically cut off in order to maintain power for the
Stop & Start system function.
If this occurs, turning the engine switch to the “LOCK” position then to the
“ACC” or “ON” position (vehi cles without a smart entry & start system) or the
“ENGINE START STOP” switch to the OFF then to ACCESSORY or IGNI-
TION ON mode (vehicles with a smart entry & start system) re-enables the
audio system.
■ Steering wheel operation
When the engine is stopped by the Stop & Start system, the steering wheel
may become heavier than when driving.

Driving assist systems
To help enhance driving safety and performance, the following sys-
tems operate automatically in response to various driving situations.
Be aware, however, that these systems are supplementary and
should not be relied upon too heavily when operating the vehicle.
■ ABS (Anti-lock Brake System)
Helps to prevent wheel lock when the brakes are applied suddenly, or if
the brakes are applied while driving on a slippery road surface.
■Brake assist
Generates an increased level of braking force after the brake pedal is
depressed when the system detects a panic stop situation.
■VSC (Vehicle Stability Control) (if equipped)
Helps the driver to control skidding when swerving suddenly or turning
on slippery road surfaces.
■TRC (Traction Control) (if equipped)
Helps to maintain drive power and pr event the drive wheels from spin-
ning when starting the vehicle or accelerating on slippery roads.
■ Active Torque Control 4WD system (4WD models)
Automatically switches from front -wheel drive to four-wheel drive
(4WD) according to the driving conditions, helping to ensure reliable
handling and stability. Examples of conditions where the system will
switch to 4WD are when cornering going uphill, starting off or accelerat-
ing, and when the road surface is slippery due to snow, rain, etc.
■ EPS (Electric Power Steering)
Employs an electric motor to reduce the amount of effort needed to turn
the steering wheel.

Four-wheel drive lock (4WD models)
■Four-wheel drive lock mode can be operated when
Vehicles without smart entry & start system
The engine switch is in the “ON” position.
Vehicles with smart entry & start system
The “ENGINE START STOP” switch is in IGNITION ON mode.
■ Four-wheel drive lock mode
●Four-wheel drive lock mode is canceled when the brakes are applied to
ensure the ABS and VSC system operate effectively.
● Four-wheel drive lock mode is canceled when the vehicle speed exceeds
40 km/h (25 mph).
Four-wheel drive lock mode can be used when a large amount of
drive power needs to be applied to all the wheels, such as when the
vehicle gets stuck in mud and you need to free it.
Push the button.
The torque of the engine is dis-
tributed to the rear wheels to
the maximum extent possible
in accordance with driving con-
ditions.
Push the button again cancels
four-wheel drive lock mode
and returns the Active Torque
Control 4WD system to nor-
mal mode. (

CAUTION
■
Storage precautions
Observe the following precautions.
Failing to do so may result in death or serious injury.
●Stow cargo and luggage in the luggage compartment whenever possible.
● Do not stack anything in the luggage compartment higher than the seat-
backs. Such items may be thrown about and possibly injure people in the
vehicle in the event of sudden braking or in an accident.
● Do not place cargo or luggage in or on the following locations as the item
may get under the clutch, brake or accelerator pedal and prevent the ped-
als from being depressed properly, block the driver’s vision, or hit the
driver or passengers, causing an accident.
• At the feet of the driver
• On the front passenger or rear seats (when stacking items)
• On the instrument panel
• On the dashboard
• Auxiliary box or tray that has no lid
● Secure all items in the occupant compartment, as they may shift and injure
someone during sudden braking, sudden swerving or an accident.
● When you fold down the rear seats, long items should not be place directly
behind the front seats.
● Never allow anyone to ride in the enlarged luggage compartment. It is not
designed for passengers. They should ri de in their seats with their seat
belts properly fastened. Otherwise, they are much more likely to suffer
death or serious injury, in the event of sudden braking, sudden swerving or
an accident.
