Driving your vehicle
When vehicles are at a standstilland the vehicle in front of you
changes to the next lane, be care-
ful when your vehicle starts to
move because it may not immedi-
ately recognize the stopped vehicle
in front of you.
In this case, you must maintain a
safe braking distance, and if nec-
essary, depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance. Always look out for pedestrians
when your vehicle is maintaining a
distance with the vehicle ahead. Always be cautious when
approaching vehicles that are taller
with higher clearance, or vehicles
carrying loads that stick out of the
back of the vehicle.

- After an engine start, please stop
for several seconds. If system ini-
tialization is not completed, the
smart cruise control system will not
operate.
- After an engine start, if the sensor cover is obscured with foreign sub-
stances, there is a possibility that
the smart cruise control system
may not work.
- The following conditions may cause a malfunction: over-loading
the liftgate, suspension modifica-
tion, tire replacement with unau-
thorized tires or tires with different
tread wear and pressure levels.
- Keep a safe distance according to road conditions and vehicle speed.
If the vehicle to vehicle distance is
too close during a high-speed driv-
ing, a serious collision may result.
- The smart cruise control system cannot recognize a stopped vehi-
cle, pedestrians or an oncoming
vehicle. Always look ahead cau-
tiously to prevent unexpected and
sudden situations from occurring.
WARNING - Inclines &
Towing
Do not use smart cruise control
system on steep inclines or
when towing another vehicle or
trailer since such extreme load-
ing can interfere with your vehi-
cle's ability to maintain the
selected speed.WARNING
- Safe Use of smart cruise control system
The smart cruise control system
can provide you with an addition-
al level of safety and fatigue
reduction. However you must
maintain careful observation of
the roadway in front and around
you and maintain control of your
vehicle and spacing around
other vehicles as you normally
would. For example, this will
require you to apply the brakes
as needed when coming upon a
slower moving vehicle, or when a
vehicle from another lane drives
quickly in front of you.
WARNING - Emergency Stops
The smart cruise control sys-
tem cannot guarantee the stop
for every emergency situation.
If an emergency stop is neces-
sary, you must apply the brakes.

ECO (ACTIVE ECO) MODE

mission. The actual fuel
efficiency will depend on
personal driving style
and habits.
MODE button and
selecting ECO MODE
the green ECO indicator
light will illuminate.
ECO MODE Driving:
The vehicle engine and transmission
will operate in fuel economy oriented
mode.
ACTIVE ECO MODE system will
restrain fuel economy driving habits
that reduce, such as sudden starts
and accelerations, compared to the
COMFORT MODE.
Conditions that limit Active
ECO MODE:
Below are a list of conditions in which
ACTIVE ECO MODE will be limited.
When engine coolant temperature is low:
When temperature of the transaxle
oil is low, the ACTIVE ECO MODE
may become temporarily unavail-
able until the transaxle oil heats up
after vehicle ignition.
When in an uphill gradient: Since the ACTIVE ECO MODE
partially limits the engine torque,
ACTIVE ECO MODE may become
temporarily unavailable when more
torque is essential for going uphill.
When using the manual transmis- sion operation mode:
If transmission operation is
changed from automatic to manual,
the vehicle will reflect it and auto-
matically stop the ACTIVE ECO
MODE.

Attributes of SMART MODE.
If the accelerator pedal is pressed
gently, your vehicle will recognize it
as a economic driving style. After
some time, the system will automat-
ically shift to SMART ECO MODE.
If you press the accelerator pedal frequently in SMART ECO MODE,
the system will automatically shift
to SMART COMFORT MODE.
Even when driving style has not changed from SMART ECO
MODE, if your vehicle is driven
uphill considerably, the system will
detect the gradient. Then, the
SMART system will automatically
change the setting to the SMART
COMFORT MODE temporarily.
Once your vehicle is out of the hilly
ground, your vehicle will automati-
cally return to the SMART ECO
MODE. The SMART system will recognize
repetitive acceleration or steering
and automatically turn to the SMART
SPORT MODE. Your vehicle will run
at a lower gear in SMART SPORT
MODE compared to those in
SMART COMFORT MODE.
The vehicle's start and stop
response rate will become faster.
When the SMART SPORT MODE is activated, and you take your feet
off the accelerator pedal, the vehi-
cle will remain in low gear and you
may sense engine brake. This is
due to necessary preparatory time
for the next acceleration and is for
convenience.
The SMART SPORT MODE is acti- vated only when repetitive acceler-
ation.
The artificial intelligence algorithm will instantly calculate each driver's
style of driving. So if the driver is
changed to a different person, the
algorithm will measure accordingly.
Conditions which Limit SMART
MODE
In following conditions your vehicle will
temporarily stop the SMART Mode
and the indicator light will turn off.
When using the manual transmis- sion operation mode: If the
transaxle system is changed from
automatic to manual, your vehicle
will automatically stop the SMART
MODE.
If transmission operation is
changed from automatic to manu-
al, the vehicle will reflect it and
automatically stop the SMART
MODE.
When the Cruise Control system is turned on:
When the driver sets a target
cruise control speed, your vehicle
will automatically stop the SMART
MODE. (The SMART MODE will
stop not immediately after you
press the cruise control button, but
when the cruise control system
takes control of the vehicle speed.)

Your vehicle's fuel economy depends
mainly on your style of driving, where
you drive and when you drive.
Each of these factors affects how
many miles (kilometers) you can get
from a gallon (liter) of fuel. To operate
your vehicle as economically as pos-
sible, use the following driving sug-
gestions to help save money in both
fuel and repairs:
Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a
moderate rate. Don't make "jack-
rabbit" starts or full-throttle shifts
and maintain a steady cruising
speed. Don't race between stop-
lights. Try to adjust your speed to
the traffic so you don't have to
change speeds unnecessarily.
Avoid heavy traffic whenever pos-
sible. Always maintain a safe dis-
tance from other vehicles so you
can avoid unnecessary braking.
This also reduces brake wear.
Drive at a moderate speed. The faster you drive, the more fuel your
vehicle uses. Driving at a moderate
speed, especially on the highway,
is one of the most effective ways to
reduce fuel consumption. Don't "ride" the brake pedal. This
can increase fuel consumption and
also increase wear on these com-
ponents. In addition, driving with
your foot resting on the brake pedal
may cause the brakes to overheat,
which reduces their effectiveness
and may lead to more serious con-
sequences.
Take care of your tires. Keep them inflated to the recommended pres-
sure. Incorrect inflation, either too
much or too little, results in unnec-
essary tire wear. Check the tire
pressures at least once a month.
Be sure that the wheels are aligned correctly. Improper align-
ment can result from hitting curbs
or driving too fast over irregular
surfaces. Poor alignment causes
faster tire wear and may also result
in other problems as well as
greater fuel consumption. Keep your vehicle in good condi-
tion. For better fuel economy and
reduced maintenance costs, main-
tain your vehicle in accordance
with the maintenance schedule in
chapter 7. If you drive your vehicle
in severe conditions, more frequent
maintenance is required (see
chapter 7 for details).
Keep your vehicle clean. For maxi- mum service, your vehicle should
be kept clean and free of corrosive
materials. It is especially important
that mud, dirt, ice, etc. not be
allowed to accumulate on the
underside of the vehicle. This extra
weight can result in increased fuel
consumption and also contribute to
corrosion.
Travel lightly. Don't carry unneces- sary weight in your vehicle. Weight
reduces fuel economy.
Don't let the engine idle longer than necessary. If you are waiting
(and not in traffic), turn off your
engine and restart only when
you're ready to go.
