The mode changes whenever the
DRIVE MODE button is pressed.
When NORMAL mode is selected, it
is not displayed on the instrument
cluster.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
If there is a problem with the instru-
ment cluster, the drive mode will be
in NORMAL mode and may not
change to ECO mode or SPORT
mode.
ECO mode
The ECO mode is a opti-
mizes vehicle perform-
ance for fuel efficient driv-
ing.
When the ECO mode is selected by pressing the DRIVE MODE but-
ton, the ECO indicator (green
color) will illuminate.
If the vehicle was in ECO mode when the engine was shut off, then
DRIVE mode will remain in ECO
mode upon engine restart.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
Fuel efficiency depends on the dri-
ver's driving habit and road condi-
tions.

Driving your vehicle
When the ECO mode is activated:
The acceleration response may beslightly reduced as the accelerator
pedal is depressed moderately.
The air conditioner performance may be limited.
The shift pattern of the automatic transaxle may change.
The engine noise may get louder.
The above situations are normal
conditions when the ECO mode is
activated to improve fuel efficiency.
Limitations of the ECO mode operation:
If the following conditions occur while
the ECO mode is operating, fuel effi-
ciency may decrease even though
there is no change in the ECO indi-
cator.
When the coolant temperature is low:
Fuel efficiency may decrease until
engine temperature reaches nor-
mal.
When driving up a hill: Fuel efficiency may decrease to
gain performance when driving
uphill because engine torque is
restricted.
When using the automatic transaxle manual shift mode:
Fuel efficiency may decrease
according to the shift location.
When the accelerator pedal is deeply depressed for a few sec-
onds:
Fuel efficiency may decrease,
judging that the driver wants to
speed up.
SPORT mode
SPORT mode managesthe driving dynamics by
automatically adjusting the
steering wheel, engine
and transaxle system to
optimize performance.
When the SPORT mode is select- ed by pressing the DRIVE MODE
button, the SPORT indicator (yel-
low color) will illuminate.
Restarting of the engine in the SPORT mode resets the DRIVE
mode to the NORMAL mode. Thus,
when necessary, reselect the
SPORT mode.
When the SPORT mode is activat- ed:
- The RPM (revolutions per min-utes) level is maintained over a
certain length of time, even after
releasing the accelerator pedal.
- When accelerating, up-shifting timing is delayed.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
In the SPORT mode, the fuel effi-
ciency may decrease.

Active ECO operation
Active ECO helps improve fuel effi-
ciency by controlling certain engine
and transaxle system operating
parameters. Fuel efficiency depends
on the driver's driving habit and road
condition. • When the Active ECO button is
pressed the ECO indicator (green)
will illuminate to show that the
Active ECO is operating.
When the Active ECO is activated, it will remain on until the Active
ECO button is pressed again.
Active ECO does not turn off when
the engine is restarted. To turn off
Active ECO, press the Active ECO
button again.
If Active ECO is turned off, the sys- tem will return to normal mode.When Active ECO is activated :
The engine noise may get louder.
The vehicle speed may slightly bereduced.
The air conditioner performance may be affected.
Limitation of Active ECO oper-
ation:
If the following conditions occur while
Active ECO is operating, the system
operation is limited even though there
is no change in the ECO indicator.
When the coolant temperature islow: 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 the engine
torque is restricted.
When using sports mode: The sys- tem will be limited according to the
shift location.
When the accelerator pedal is deeply depressed for a few sec-
onds: The system will be limited,
judging that the driver wants to
speed up.

Maintenance
Cold Tire Pressure:The amount of
air pressure in a tire, measured in
pounds per square inch (psi) or kilo-
pascals (kPa) before a tire has built
up heat from driving.
Curb Weight: This means the weight
of a motor vehicle with standard and
optional equipment including the
maximum capacity of fuel, oil and
coolant, but without passengers and
cargo.
DOT Markings: A code molded into
the sidewall of a tire signifying that
the tire is in compliance with the U.S.
Department of Transportation motor
vehicle safety standards. The DOT
code includes the Tire Identification
Number (TIN), an alphanumeric des-
ignator which can also identify the
tire manufacturer, production plant,
brand and date of production.
GVWR: Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
GAWR FRT: Gross Axle Weight
Rating for the Front Axle.
GAWR RR: Gross Axle Weight
Rating for the Rear axle. Intended Outboard Sidewall:
The
side of an asymmetrical tire, that
must always face outward when
mounted on a vehicle.
Kilopascal (kPa): The metric unit for
air pressure.
Light truck(LT) tire: A tire designat-
ed by its manufacturer as primarily
intended for use on lightweight trucks
or multipurpose passenger vehicles.
Load ratings: The maximum load
that a tire is rated to carry for a given
inflation pressure.
Load Index: An assigned number
ranging from 1 to 279 that corre-
sponds to the load carrying capacity
of a tire.
Maximum Inflation Pressure: The
maximum air pressure to which a
cold tire may be inflated. The maxi-
mum air pressure is molded onto the
sidewall.
Maximum Load Rating: The load
rating for a tire at the maximum per-
missible inflation pressure for that tire.
Maximum Loaded Vehicle Weight:
The sum of curb weight; accessory
weight; vehicle capacity weight; and
production options weight. Normal Occupant Weight:
The
number of occupants a vehicle is
designed to seat multiplied by 150
pounds (68 kg).
Occupant Distribution: Designated
seating positions.
Outward Facing Sidewall: The side
of a asymmetrical tire that has a par-
ticular side that faces outward when
mounted on a vehicle. The outward
facing sidewall bears white lettering
or bears manufacturer, brand, and/or
model name molding that is higher or
deeper than the same moldings on
the inner facing sidewall.
Passenger (P-Metric) Tire: A tire
used on passenger cars and some
light duty trucks and multipurpose
vehicles.
Ply: A layer of rubber-coated parallel
cords
Pneumatic tire: A mechanical device
made of rubber, chemicals, fabric and
