Auto Idle Stop
To help maximize fuel economy, the engi ne automatically stops when the vehicle
comes to a stop, depending on environmental and vehicle operating conditions. The
AUTO STOP indicator blinks at this time. The engine then restarts once the vehicle
is about to move again when you depress the clutch pedal fully, and the indicator
goes off. If the driver’s door is opened while the
indicator is blinking, a buzzer sounds to notify
you that the Auto Idle Stop function is in
operation.
