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
encourages the driver to remove foot
from accelerator pedal and allow
coasting down the road with EV
motor only. This helps prevent
unnecessary fuel consumption 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 system. For the
explanation of the system, press and
hold the [OK] button.

To activate the system, take the fol-
lowing procedures. Enter your desti-
nation information on the navigation
and select the driving route. 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
cluster and navigation effected by
tire inflation level.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
Coasting guide is only a supplemen-
tal system to assist with fuel-efficient
driving. Thus, the operating condi-
tions may be different in accordance
with traffic/road conditions (i.e.
driving in a traffic jam, driving on a
slope, driving on a curve). Thus,
take the actual driving conditions
into consideration, such as distances
from the vehicles ahead/ behind,
while referring to the coasting guide
system as guidance.

AUX. BATTERY SAVER+ (For
Plug-in Hybrid, if equipped)
The Aux. Battery Saver+ is a function
that monitors the charging status of
the 12V auxiliary battery.
If the auxiliary battery level is low, the
main high voltage battery charges
the auxiliary battery.
✽ ✽NOTICE
The Aux. Battery Saver+ function will
be ON when the vehicle is delivered. If
the function is not needed, you may
turn it off in the Users Settings mode
on the LCD display. For more infor-
mation, refer to the "System setting"
on the following page.
Mode

When the vehicle is OFF with all
doors, hood and liftgate closed, the
Aux. Battery Saver+ periodically acti-
vates according to the auxiliary bat-
tery status.

When the engine start/stop button is
in the ON position with the charging
connector plugged in, the function
activates according to the auxiliary
battery status to prevent over-dis-
charge of the auxiliary battery.
✽ ✽NOTICE
The Aux. Battery Saver+ activates
maximum of 20 minutes. If the Aux.
Battery Saver+ function activates
more than 10 times consecutively, in
the Automatic Mode the function
will stop activating, judging that
there is a problem with the auxiliary
battery. In this case, drive the vehi-
cle for some period of time. The
function will start activating if the
auxiliary battery returns to normal.
CAUTION
The Aux. Battery Saver+ func-
tion cannot prevent batterydischarge if the auxiliary bat-tery is damaged, worn out,used as a power supply orunauthorized electronicdevices are used.
If the Aux. Battery Saver+ function was activated, a mes-sage will be displayed on theinstrument cluster and thehigh voltage battery level mayhave decreased.
