The Pedestrian Warning System
generates engine sound for pedestri-
ans to hear vehicle sound because
there is little sound while the Electric
Vehicle (EV) is operating.
If the vehicle is moving at a slow
speed, the Pedestrian Warning
System will be operated.
- When the reduction gear is shiftedto [R], the Pedestrian Warning
System will be operated immedi-
ately.
The vehicle generates little sound. Be aware of your driving environ-
ment and drive safely.
After you park the vehicle or while you are waiting at a traffic light,
check whether there are kids or
obstacles around the vehicle.
Check if there is something behind the vehicle when driving in
reverse. Pedestrians may not hear
the sound of the vehicle. Active ECO helps improve energy
efficiency by controlling certain
motor and climate contol system
operating parameters. Energy effi-
ciency depends on the driver's driv-
ing 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 vehicle is restarted. To turn off
Active ECO, press the Active ECO
button again.
