SeeDriver Information Center (DIC) 0111.

indicates the vehicle status. When pointing
to AUTO STOP, the engine is off but the
vehicle is on and can move. The engine
could auto start at any time. When the

(rpm). The tachometer may vary by several
hundred rpm, during Auto Stop mode, when
the engine is shutting off and restarting.

fuel light comes on. There is a small amount
of fuel left, but the fuel tank should be

lights at all, there may be a problem with
the lights or the passenger sensing system.
See your dealer for service.
