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:

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

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.
If the vehicle is set to COMFORT
mode, when the engine is turned
OFF and restarted, the Drive Mode
setting will remain in COMFORT

[A] : Blind spot area
[B] : Closing at high speed
The Blind-spot Collision Warning
(BCW) system uses radar sensors in
the rear bumper to monitor and warn
the driver of an approaching vehicle
in the driver's blind spot area.The system monitors the rear area of
the vehicle and provides information
to the driver with an audible alert and
an indicator on the outside rearview
mirrors.
(1) BCW : Blind spot area
The BCW range varies relative to
vehicle speed. Note that if your
vehicle is travelling much faster
than the vehicles around you, the
warning will not occur.
(2) BCW : Closing at high speed The BCW-Closing at high speed
feature will alert you when a vehi-
cle is approaching in an adjacent
lane at a high rate of speed. If the
driver activates the turn signal
when the system detects an
oncoming vehicle, the system
sounds an audible alert. Distance
from the approaching vehicle can
be seen differently according to
the relative speed. (3) RCCW (Rear Cross-Traffic
Collision Warning)
The RCCW feature monitors
approaching cross traffic from the
left and right side of the vehicle
when your vehicle is in reverse.
The feature will operate when the
vehicle is moving in reverse below
about 6 mph (10 km/h). If oncom-
ing cross traffic is detected a
warning chime will sound.
Distance from the approaching
vehicle can be seen differently
according to the relative speed.

speed is below 6.2 mph (10 km/h) and
with the shift lever in R (Reverse).
The Rear Cross-Traffic Collision
warning detecting range is approxi-
mately 0.5 m ~ 20 m (1 ft ~ 65 ft) in the
direction of both lateral sides of the
vehicle. An approaching vehicle will
be detected if their vehicle speed is
within 2.5 ~ 22.5 mph (4 km/h ~ 36

Blind-spot Collision Warning
(BCW) system and Rear
Cross-Traffic Collision
Warning (RCCW). Do not sole-
ly rely on the system but
check your surrounding
before changing lanes or
backing the vehicle up.

the road. When the road is nar-
row, the system may detect
other vehicles in the next lane
OR when the road is wide, the
system may not detect other
vehicles in the next lane.
The system may turn off due to strong electromagnetic waves.
Detecting sensor
The sensors are located inside the
rear bumper.
Always keep the rear bumper clean
for proper operation of the system.
