OPERATING THE VEHICLE

AUTO START–STOP SYSTEM
The Auto Start-Stop system is designed to automatically stop and restart the engine when
the vehicle is stationary for a short period of time (while waiting for a traffic light or in a
traffic jam) after the engine has warmed up. The system operates in order to reduce fuel
consumption, exhaust emissions and undesired idling noise.
System Operation
So that it can be used safely and comfortably, in addition to driver operations, the Auto
Start-Stop system is designed to constantly monitor the vehicle conditions as well as the
environment inside and outside the vehicle, in order to control stopping and restarting of
the engine.
After the vehicle has been completely stopped by depressing the brake pedal
with the select lever in the “D” position, the engine will be automatically
stopped.
If you release the brake pedal with the select lever kept in the “D” position, the
engine will be automatically restarted.
Auto Vehicle Hold (AVH) also integrates seamlessly with Auto Start-Stop functions. With
AVH, the parking brake automatically applies, so you can sit without your foot on the brake
pedal. To restart the engine, just gently press down on the accelerator pedal.
If the engine is temporarily stopped by the system, the Auto Start-Stop indicator light on
the combination meter will illuminate in green. This indicator light will turn off when the
system restarts the engine.
There are several operating conditions for this system to operate as intended. Please refer
to the Owner’s Manual for further information.
Fuel Saving Display
After you come to a stop and the Auto
Start-Stop system stops the engine the screen
to the right will display in the Combination
Meter Display (CMD). This show you how
much time the engine was off in the top time
and how much fuel was saved in the bottom
line. This is the total stop time and fuel saved
since it was reset.
No Activity Detected Indicator Light
If the operational conditions are not met when the vehicle is stopped, the
engine will not stop and the Auto Start-Stop No Activity Detected indicator
light will illuminate. This indicator is solid white when illuminated. It will turn off
when the vehicle begins to drive.
