mission. The actual fuelefficiency will depend on
personal driving style
and habits.

green ECO indicator
light will illuminate. ECO MODE Driving:
The vehicle engine and transmission
will operate in fuel economy oriented
mode.
ACTIVE ECO MODE system will
restrain fuel economy worsening
driving habits, such as suddenly
starts and accelerations, compare tothe NORMAL MODE.
Conditions that limit Active ECO MODE:
Below are a list of conditions in which
when in ACTIVE ECO MODE, the
indicator light will not change, but the
internal system may operate differ-
ently.
When engine coolant temperature
is low:
When temperature of the transaxle
oil is below the normal range, the
ACTIVE ECO MODE may become
temporarily unavailable until the
transaxle oil heats up after vehicleignition.
When in an uphill gradient:
Since the ACTIVE ECO MODE
partially limits the engine torque,
ACTIVE ECO MODE may become
temporarily unavailable when more
torque is essential for going uphill.
When using the manual transmis- sion operation mode:
If transmission operation is
changed from automatic to manual,
vehicle will reflect it and automati-
cally stop the ACTIVE ECO MODE.

Below is a summary of the automatic drive mode control depending on the usage of the steering wheel, engine and transaxle system.
CAUTION
SMART MODE an intelligent driving mode and when the driving
style is economic and fuel efficient, the SMART ECO MODE will beautomatically selected. The engine and transaxle system will become more fuel efficient, but the actual fuel economy will dependon various driving factors (on uphill/ downhill, heavy revving orbraking).
If you make sudden accelerations or turns in SMART MODE, the intelligent mode will select SMART SPORT MODE. This maydecrease fuel efficiency.

DRIVE MODE Indicator Screen The DRIVE MODE indicator screen
can be displayed by using the trip com-
puter button on the steering wheel. DRIVE MODE indicator screen dis-
plays status of current drive mode.
DRIVE MODE button is located onthe lower part of the transmission
lever for selecting drive mode.
If drive mode is selected manually
by the user, the drive mode indica-
tor screen will show user-selected
drive mode. (NORMAL, ECO, or
SPORT)
If SMART MODE is selected by
DRIVE MODE button, the drive
mode indicator screen will show
current drive mode automatically
selected by SMART MODE sys-
tem. (SMART NORMAL, SMART
ECO, or SMART SPORT) When the trip computer mode is
selected to show DRIVE MODE
and the SMART MODE is in oper-ation, an automatically selected
driving mode SMART ECO,
SMART NORMAL, or SMART
SPORT, will be selected on the
cluster's center.
And right below is the horizontal
driving style gauge which reflects
the driving style in real time.
If you drive carefully and slowly in SMART MODE, the left side of the
driving style gauge will illuminate,and be automatically shifted to the
SMART ECO MODE.
When the driver accelerates more
frequently, the right side of the driv-
ing style gauge will fill up, and shift
to SMART NORMAL MODE.
In addition, if the rate of accelera-
tion and speed is high, drive mode
will change to SMART SPORTMODE. If the auto cruise control function is
operated or the transmission is
shifted to manual mode while
SMART MODE is on, the SMART
MODE will stop temporarily, and
the DRIVE MODE will be displayed
as OFF. The driving style gauge
light will be turned off accordingly.
If the trip computer is not set to show DRIVE MODE indicator
screen, and you want to know the
on/off status of the SMART MODE,
simply check whether the letters
'SMART' is lighten up on the
screen or not (green - ECO MODE,white - NORMAL MODE, red -
SPORT MODE).

Driving Style GaugeOnce the SMART MODE is selected
by pressing the DRIVE MODE but-ton, and the DRIVE MODE indicator
screen is selected by pressing the
trip computer button on the steering
wheel, the driving style gauge bar
will show up at the bottom of screen
and visualize current style of driving.
Left poles of the driving style gauge
indicates degree of economic and
gentle driving in green color. The
more economic and gentle you
drive, the more left poles will light up
in green.
Likewise, the right pole of the driving
style gauge indicates degree of
aggressive and sporty driving in red
color. The faster and more aggres-
sive you drive, the more far rightpoles will light up in red. When driving style gauge fills up
toward left side (or Economic side)
and kept for certain time, then your
vehicle will be automatically switch
to SMART ECO MODE.
Likewise, when driving style gauge
fills up toward right side (or
Aggressive side) and kept for certain
time, then your vehicle will be auto-
matically the switch to SMART
SPORT MODE.
If you wish to maintain the SMART ECO MODE for better fuel econo-
my, try to maintain economic driv-
ing style and keep the driving style
gauge green.

Conditions which Limit SMART
MODE
In following conditions your vehicle will
temporarily stop the SMART Mode
and the indicator light will turn off.
When using the manual transmis- sion operation mode: If the
transaxle system is changed from
automatic to manual, your vehicle
will automatically stop the SMARTMODE.
If transmission operation is
changed from automatic to manu-
al, vehicle will reflect it and auto-
matically stop the SMART MODE.
When the Cruise Control system is turned on:
When the driver sets a target
cruise control speed, your vehicle
will automatically stop the SMART
MODE. (The SMART MODE will
stop not immediately after you
press the cruise control button, but
when the cruise control system
takes control of the vehicle speed.) If the temperature of the transaxle
oil is very high or low:
The SMART MODE control system
will operate in nearly all driving
conditions. But when the tempera-
ture of the transaxle oil is out of the
normal range, the SMART MODE
system may become temporarily
unavailable.

you may change the vehicle height.
When you drive under 70km/h, you may select the HIGH mode.
If the vehicle speed exceeds 70km/h while driving in the HIGH
mode, the NORMAL mode will be
selected automatically.
If the vehicle speed exceeds 120km/h while driving in NORMAL
mode, the LOW mode that is lowerthan NORMAL mode will be select-
ed automatically. LOW mode can
not be selected manually. When you drive under 80km/h in
the LOW mode, the NORMAL
mode will be selected automatically.
When the engine start/stop button is turned off with the HIGH modeselected, the HIGH mode will bemaintained.
It is to prevent damage under the
vehicle when parked in rough roads.
The height of the vehicle may be adjusted after the engine start/stop
button is turned off for
2hours/5hours/10hours.
It is to compensate vehicle height
affected by outside temperature.
✽✽
NOTICE
 When you drive over 70km/h, you may not select the HIGH mode.
 Do not operate ECS when the air filter of the compressor in the
lower part of the vehicle sinks
