shift lever is in “N” (Neutral) position.
“ENG A-STOP” indicator light (green) (1) in
the instrument cluster will be turned off and
the engine will restart automatically.
NOTE:
If the engine stalled by a rapid clutch oper-
ation, the engine will restart with the gear
positioned “N” (neutral) and the clutch
pedal depressed.NOTE:
Under the following conditions, the engine
will restart automatically even if the engine
was stopped by the ENG A-STOP system:
• When the vehicle coasts down a slope.
• An engine stopped, and a few minutes
passed.
• Brake booster vacuum pressure is low.
• Vehicle battery performance is low.
• Blower speed selector is set to ON mode
and the inside of the vehicle has not suf-
ficiently cooled and warmed (for the
vehicle with automatic air conditioning).
• The defrost switch is set to ON mode (for
the vehicle with automatic air condition-
ing).
• Electric power consumption is high, such
as when the heated rear window switch
and heated outside rearview mirror
switch (if equipped) is “ON” or other
electrical components (audio, air condi-
tioning etc.) are operating.
• “ENG A-STOP OFF” switch is pressed to
deactivate the ENG A-STOP system.
NOTE:
When the engine restarts, the sound of the

4) The display shows current tire inflation
pressure.NOTE:
• If the low tire pressure warning light
comes on, the information display will be
switched to “Type Press” display and the
corresponding tire pressure indication
blinks to alert you which tire(s) is(are)
low pressure.
• The display may not show the tire infla-
tion pressure for about 10 minutes after
the vehicle begins to move. This is
because the TPMS system learns the
tire inflation pressure within this 10 min-
utes. The display will show the tire infla-
tion pressure after 10 minutes passed.
• If you stop the vehicle and turn the igni-
tion switch to “LOCK” position or change
the ignition mode to “LOCK” (OFF), and
leave it for 20 minutes or more, tire pres-
sure will be reset and will be indicated as
0 kPa when the engine is restarted. In
this case, the current tire pressure indi-
cation will recover after driving for a
while. However, if any of tire pressures
has been detected as low pressure
before stopping the engine, the tire pres-
sure indication may not recover and may
be indicated as “---”.To set the initial value of tire pressure
