• The motor assistance function is func-tioning during moderate accelerating:
The ISG assists the engine.
81P40300
If all of the following conditions are met,
the motor assistance function is function-
ing.
• To accelerate, the accelerator pedal is a
bit more depressed.
• For manual transaxle, the gearshift lever is in a position other than “N” (Neutral).
• For CVT, the gearshift lever is in the “D” position.
• The brake pedal and/or clutch pedal (if
equipped) is(are) not depressed.
• For CVT, when driving with the vehicle speed from right after starting to about
100 km/h and the engine revolution is
lower than about 3900 rpm.
• The time has elapsed one second or
more from the previous operation of the
motor assistance function.
• The ABS or ESP
® system has not been
activated. • The lithium-ion battery is charged more
than a certain amount, and the tempera-
ture inside the battery is within the speci-
fied range.
• The engine coolant temperature is within the specified range.
NOTE:
When the accelerator pedal is depressed
all the way down for quickly accelerating,
the motor assistance function will not oper-
ate.
Battery indicator
The segments in the battery indicator (1)
give an approximate indication of the
charge of the lithium-ion battery.

NOTE:
The energy flow indicator gives an approx-
imate indication. The indication may be
delayed or inaccurate under certain condi-
tions, for example, when the outside tem-
perature is low. Deceleration energy regenerating indi-
cator light

When the deceleration energy regenerat-
ing function is working, the deceleration
energy regenerating indicator light (1)
comes on.
NOTE:
• If the gearshift lever is in the “N” (Neu-
tral) position, this light does not come
on.
• You can choose that this light comes on or does not come on via the setting
mode of the information display. For
details on how to use the information dis-
play, refer to “Informa tion display” in the
“BEFORE DRIVING” section.

NOTE:
You can adjust the set speed by approxi-
mately 1.5 km/h (0.9 mph) by pushing
“RES +/SET –” switch quickly.Canceling cruise controlThe set indicator (5) or “SET” indicator light
(7) will go off and the cruise control will be
canceled temporarily with the following
conditions:
• Push “CANCEL” switch (2).
• Depress the brake pedal.
• For manual transaxle, depress the clutch pedal.
• For CVT, downshift from 3rd to 2nd in the manual mode (if equipped).
• For Auto Gear Shift, downshift from 3rd to
2nd in the manual mode.
• The vehicle speed falls more than about 20 percent from the set speed.
• Any time the vehicle speed falls below 40 km/h (25 mph).
• When the vehicle skids and ESP
® (if
equipped) is activated.
To resume the previously set speed, push
up the “RES +/SET –” switch (3) and turn
on the set indicator (5) or “SET” indicator
light (7). The vehicle speed must be above
45 km/h (28 mph) when the vehicle is not
under the above conditions. To turn off the cruise control system, push
cruise switch (1) and check that the cruise
indicator (4) or cruise indicator light (6) is
off.
Also, if the malfunction indicator light in the
instrument cluster comes on or blinks, the
cruise control system will be turned off.
NOTE:
If you turn off the cruise control system, the
previously set speed in the memory is
cleared. Reset your cruising speed again.
Speed limiter (if equipped)

Brake assist system
When there is high probability of a frontal crash, the brake assist system provides more
powerful braking when you slam down on the brake pedal. Brake a ssist system might
work at the same tim e as the warning brak e system or automatic brake system.

Automatic brake system
When a frontal crash is unavoidable, the brakes will powerfully operate automatically. (#1)

OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE

How grip control system works
When the grip control switch is on and one
side of the tires is slipping, the grip control
system assists you in smooth starting by
controlling the driving force and brake
force of all wheels.
• When the ESP
® system is off, the grip
control system cannot be activated.
NOTE:
While the grip control system is working,
the ESP
® warning light blinks.
Hill hold control sys tem (if equipped)The hill hold control system is designed to
assist you in starting to move up hills.
When you start to move up a hill, the sys-
tem helps to prevent the vehicle from roll-
ing downward (for approximately 2
seconds) while you move your foot from
the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.
The hill hold control system activates for a
maximum of about 2 seconds if your foot is
moved from the brake pedal when the fol-
lowing conditions are all met.
1) The gearshift lever is in a forward gear or reverse gear.
2) The parking brake is released.
3) For manual transaxle models, the clutch pedal is depressed.
4) The vehicle is o n an upward incline.
CAUTION
To activate the grip control system,
push the grip control switch and
check that the indicator on the switch
turns on.
WA R N I N G
• Do not rely excessively on the hill
hold control system. The hill hold
control system may not prevent the
vehicle from rolling downward on a
hill under all load or road condi-
tions. Always be prepared to
depress the brake pedal to prevent
the vehicle from rolling downward.
Failure to pay attention and
depress the brake pedal to hold the
vehicle on a hill when necessary,
may result in loss of control or an
accident.
• The hill hold control system is not designed to stop the vehicle on a
hill. (Continued)
WA R N I N G
(Continued)
• After you release your foot from the
brake pedal, accelerate the vehicle
to move up immediately. If you
release your foot from the brake
pedal over 2 seconds, the hill hold
control system will be canceled. If
so, the vehicle may roll downward,
which can result in an accident
depending on the degree of slope.
And, the engine may stall and the
power assist for the steering and
brakes will not work so steering
and braking will be much harder
than usual which can result in an
accident or vehicle damage.

WA R N I N G
(Continued)
• Be careful when overtaking othervehicles. Allow enough room for
your trailer before changing lanes,
and use turn signal lights properly
in advance.
• Slow down and shift into a lower gear before you reach long or steep
downhill grades. It is hazardous to
attempt downshifting while you are
descending a hill.
• Do not step on the brake pedal strongly. This could cause the
brakes to over-heat resulting in
reduced braking efficiency. Use
engine braking as much as possi-
ble.
• Because of the added trailer weight, your engine may overheat
on hot days when going up long or
steep hills. Pay attention to your
engine temperature. If the high
engine coolant temperature warn-
ing light (red color) indicates over-
heating, pull off the road and stop
the vehicle in a safe place. Refer to
“Engine trouble: Overheating” in
the “EMERGENCY SERVICE” sec-
tion.
WA R N I N G
When parking your vehicle and con-
nected trailer, always use the follow-
ing procedure:
1) Apply the vehicle’s brakes firmly.
2) Have another person place wheel
chocks under the wheels of the
vehicle and the trailer while you
are holding the brakes.
3) Slowly release the brakes until the wheel chocks absorb the load.
4) Fully engage the parking brake.
5) Manual transaxle – turn off the engine, then shift into reverse or
first gear.
Auto Gear Shift – shift into reverse
or first gear and check the gear
position indicator in the instru-
ment cluster to make sure that the
transaxle is engaged in 1st or
reverse, then turn off the engine.
CVT – shift into “P” (Park) and
turn off the engine.
When starting out after parking:
1) Depress the clutch and start the engine.
2) Shift into gear, release the parking brake, and slowly pull away from
the chocks.
3) Stop, apply the brakes firmly and hold them.
4) Have another person remove the
chocks.
