Coasting guide (if equipped)
A chime will sound and the coasting
guide indicator will blink four times to
inform the driver when to take the
foot off from the accelerator by antic-
ipating a decelerating event* based
on the analysis of driving routes and
road conditions of the navigation. It
induces the driver to coast the vehi-
cle on a road only with the electrical-
motor power. This prevents unneces-
sary fuel consumption and increases
fuel efficiency
❈Examples of decelerating events:
U-turn, turnings to the right/left,
traffic circles, highway junctions,
tollgates, etc. to detect speeding.

Press the Engine Start/Stop button and put the shift lever in P(Park). In the
User Settings Mode, select Driving Assist, Coasting Guide, and then On to
turn on the system. Cancel the selection of coasting guide to turn off the sys-
tem. For the explanation of the system, press and hold the [OK] button.

To activate the system, take the following procedures. Enter your destination
information on the navigation and select the driving route. Select the ECO
mode in the Integrated Driving Control System. Then, satisfy the following.
- The driving speed should be between 37 mph (60 km/h) and 99 mph (160 km/h).
❈The operating condition (driving speed) varies in a situation, as there may
be a difference in displaying the driving speeds between the instrument
cluster and the navigation, and as there may be a difference between the
actual driving speed and the driving speed display due to tire inflating
ranges.

traffic jam, driving on a slope, driving
on a curve). Thus, take the actual driv-
ing conditions into consideration, such
as distances from the vehicles ahead/
behind, while referring to the coasting
guide system as guidance.
