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 anticipating
a decelerating event* based on the
analysis of driving routes and road
conditions of the navigation. It encour-
ages the driver to remove foot from the
pedal and allow coasting down the
road with EV motor only. This helps
prevent unnecessary fuel consump-
tion and increases fuel efficiency.
❈Example of a deceleration event is
going down an extended hill, slow-
ing down approaching a toll booth,
and approaching reduced speed
zones.

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 speed may vary due to difference between instrument clus-
ter and navigation effected by tire inflation level.
