DRIVE MODE INTEGRATED CONTROL SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
The drive mode may be selected
according to the driver's preference
or road condition.
The system resets to be in the COM-
FORT mode (except if it is in ECO
mode), when the engine is restarted.
Information
If there is a problem with the instru-
ment cluster, the drive mode will be in
COMFORT mode and may not
change to SPORT mode. The mode changes, as below,
whenever the DRIVE MODE button
is pressed.
When COMFORT mode is selected,
it is not displayed on the instrument
cluster.
ECO mode (if equipped)
When the Drive Mode is
set to ECO mode, the
engine and transmission
control logic are changed
to maximise fuel efficiency.
• When the ECO mode is selected by pressing the DRIVE MODE button,
the ECO indicator will illuminate.
• If the vehicle is set to ECO mode, when the engine is turned OFF and
restarted, the Drive Mode setting
will remain in ECO mode.
Information
Fuel efficiency depends on the driver's
driving habit and road condition. When ECO mode is activated:
• The acceleration response may be
slightly reduced as the accelerator
pedal is depressed moderately.
• The air conditioner performance may be limited.
• The shift pattern of the dual clutch transmission may change.
• The engine noise may get louder.
The above situations are normal
conditions when ECO mode is acti-
vated, to improve fuel efficiency.

Limitation of ECO mode opera-
tion:
If the following conditions occur
whilst ECO mode is operating, the
system operation is limited even
though there is no change in 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
engine torque is restricted.
• When driving the vehicle with the dual clutch transmission gear shift
lever in manual shift mode:
The system will be limited due to
the shift location.
• When the accelerator pedal is deeply depressed for a few seconds:
The system will be limited, judging
that the driver wants to speed up.SPORT mode
SPORT mode managesthe driving dynamics by
automatically adjusting the
steering effort, the engine
and transmission control
logic for enhanced driving
performance.
• When SPORT mode is selected by pressing the DRIVE MODE button,
the SPORT indicator will illuminate.
• Whenever the engine is restarted, the Drive Mode will revert back to
COMFORT mode. If SPORT mode
is desired, re-select SPORT mode
from the DRIVE MODE button.
• When SPORT mode is activated: - The engine rpm will tend to remainraised over a certain length of time
even after releasing the accelerator
- Upshifts are delayed when accel- erating
Information
In SPORT mode, the fuel efficiency
may decrease.
COMFORT mode
COMFORT mode is a
base mode.
When COMFORT mode is selected
by pressing the DRIVE MODE but-
ton, the COMFORT indicator will illu-
minate.
If the vehicle is set to COMFORT
mode, when the engine is turned
OFF and restarted, the Drive Mode
setting will remain in COMFORT
mode.

Cruise Control operation
1. Cruise ( ) indicator
2. SET indicator
The Cruise Control system allows you
to drive at speeds above 20 mph
(30 km/h) without depressing the
accelerator pedal.During cruise-speed driving of a
manual transmission vehicle, do
not shift into neutral without
depressing the clutch pedal, since
the engine will be overrevved. If
this happens, depress the clutch
pedal or press the cruise control
ON / OFF button.
NOTICE
CRUISE CONTROL (IF EQUIPPED)
Take the following precautions:
•Always set the vehicle speed
under the speed limit in your
country.
•If the Cruise Control is left on,
(Cruise ( ) indicator light in
the instrument cluster is illu-
minated) the Cruise Control
can be activated unintention-
ally. Keep the Cruise Control
system off (CRUISE indicator
light OFF) when the Cruise
Control is not in use, to avoid
inadvertently setting a speed.
•Use the Cruise Control system
only when travelling on open
highways in good weather.
•Do not use the Cruise Control
when it may be unsafe to keep
the vehicle at a constant
speed:
- When driving in heavy traffic
or when traffic conditions
make it difficult to drive at a
constant speed
- When driving on rainy, icy, orsnow-covered roads
- When driving on hilly or windy roads
- When driving in windy areas
• Do not use cruise control
when towing a trailer.WARNING

• Pressing the O (Cancel) button located on the steering wheel.
• Pressing the (Cruise) button. Both the (Cruise) indicator and
the SET indicator will turn OFF.
• Pressing the button. Both the (Cruise) indicator and the
SET indicator will turn OFF. (if
equipped with the Speed Limit
Control) • Moving the shift lever into N
(Neutral). (for adual clutch trans-
mission vehicle)
• Decreasing the vehicle speed to less than approximately 20 mph
(30 km/h).
• The ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is operating.
• Downshifting to the 2nd gear in manual shift mode. (for dual clutch
transmission vehicle)
Information
Each of the above actions will cancel
Cruise Control operation (the SET
indicator light in the instrument clus-
ter will go off), but only pressing the (Cruise) button will turn the sys-
tem off. If you wish to resume Cruise
Control operation, push the toggle
switch up (RES+) located on your
steering wheel. You will return to your
previously preset speed, unless the
system was turned off using the

Hazardous driving conditions
When hazardous driving elements
are encountered such as water,
snow, ice, mud and sand, take the
following precautions:
• Drive cautiously and maintain alonger braking distance.
• Avoid abrupt braking or steering.
• When your vehicle is stuck in snow, mud, or sand, use the second
gear. Accelerate slowly to avoid
unnecessary wheel spinning.
• Put sand, rock salt, tyre chains or other non-slip materials under the
wheels to provide additional trac-
tion whilst being stuck in ice, snow,
or mud.
Rocking the vehicle
If it is necessary to rock the vehicle
to free it from snow, sand, or mud,
first turn the steering wheel right and
left to clear the area around your
front wheels. Then, shift back and
forth between R (Reverse) and a for-
ward gear.
Try to avoid spinning the wheels, and
do not race the engine.
To prevent transmission wear, wait
until the wheels stop spinning before
shifting gears. Release the accelera-
tor pedal whilst shifting, and press
lightly on the accelerator pedal whilst
the transmission is in gear. Slowly
spinning the wheels in forward and
reverse directions causes a rocking
motion that may free the vehicle.
SPECIAL DRIVING CONDITIONS
Downshifting with a dual clutch
transmission whilst driving on
slippery surfaces can cause an
accident. The sudden change in
tyre speed could cause the
tyres to skid. Be careful when
downshifting on slippery sur-
faces.
WARNING
If the vehicle is stuck and
excessive wheel spin occurs,
the temperature in the tyres can
increase very quickly. If the
tyres become damaged, a tyre
blow out or tyre explosion can
occur. This condition is danger-
ous - you and others may be
injured. Do not attempt this pro-
cedure if people or objects are
anywhere near the vehicle.
If you attempt to free the vehi-
cle, the vehicle can overheat
quickly, possibly causing an
engine compartment fire or
other damage. Try to avoid spin-
ning the wheels as much as
possible to prevent overheating
of either the tyres or the engine.
DO NOT allow the vehicle to
spin the wheels above 35 mph
(56 km/h).
