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 according to the nav-
igation system. It encourages the
driver to remove the driver's foot from
the pedal and allow coasting down
the road with EV motor only.
This helps prevent unnecessary fuel
consumption and may increases fuel
efficiency.
❈Example of a deceleration event is
going down an extended hill,
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. Select
the ECO mode in the Integrated
Driving Control System. 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 instru-
ment cluster and navigation effect-
ed by tire inflation level.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
Coasting guide is only a supplemen-
tal system to assist with fuel-efficient
driving in certain situations. Thus,
the operating conditions may be dif-
ferent 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 con-
sideration, such as distances from
the vehicles ahead/ behind, while
referring to the coasting guide sys-
tem as guidance.

provided to store and recall the driv-
er seat and outside rearview mirror
position with a simple button opera-
tion. By saving the desired position
into the system memory, different
drivers can reposition the driver seat
and outside rearview mirror based
upon their driving preference. If the
battery is disconnected, the desired
seat position memory will need to be
re-saved.

adjusted by someone else. If that
occurs, immediately push the seat
position control knob in the direction
of the desired position to stop further
undesired movement.

Headrest (for front seat)
The driver's and front passenger's
seats are equipped with a headrest
for the occupant's safety and comfort.
The headrest not only provides com-
fort for the driver and front passenger,
but also helps protect the head and
neck in the event of a rear collision.
For maximum effectiveness in case
of an accident, the headrest should
be adjusted so the middle of the
headrest is at the same height of the
center of gravity of an occupant's
head. Generally, the center of gravity
of most people's head is similar with
the height of the top of their eyes.
