While Driving
6-56
Various driving situations, which you may
encounter in SMART mode

[The driving mode automatically
changes to SMART ECO mode after
a certain period of time, when you
gently depress the accelerator pedal
(Your driving is categorized to be
economic.).

[The driving mode automatically
changes from SMART ECO mode to
SMART NORMAL mode after a certain
period of time, when you sharply or
repetitively depress the accelerator
pedal.

[The driving mode automatically
changes to SMART NORMAL mode
with the same driving patterns, when
the vehicle starts to drive on an
upward slope of a certain angle. The
driving mode automatically returns to
SMART ECO mode, when the vehicle
enters a leveled road.

[The driving mode automatically
changes to SMART SPORT, when
you abruptly accelerate the vehicle
or repetitively operate the steering
wheel (Your driving is categorized
to be sporty.). In this mode, your
vehicle drives in a lower gear for
abrupt accelerating/decelerating
and increases the engine brake
performance.

[You may still sense the engine
braking performance, even when
you release the accelerator pedal in
SMART SPORT mode. It is because
your vehicle remains in lower gear
over a certain period of time for next
acceleration. Thus, it is a normal
driving situation, not indicating any
malfunction.

[The driving mode automatically
changes to SMART SPORT mode
only in harsh driving situations. In
most of the normal driving situations,
the driving mode sets to be either
in SMART ECO mode or in SMART
NORMAL mode.
Limitation of SMART mode
The SMART mode may be limited in
following situations. (The OFF indicator
illuminates in those situations.)

[The cruise control is activated :
The cruise control system may
deactivate the SMART mode when
the vehicle is controlled by the set
speed of Smart Cruise Control system.
(SMART mode is not deactivated
just by activating the cruise control
system.)

[The transmission oil temperature is
either extremely low or extremely
high :
The SMART mode can be active in
most of the normal driving situations.
However, an extremely high/ low
transmission oil temperature may
temporarily deactivate the SMART
mode, because the transmission
condition is out of normal operation
condition.

[Use a towing cable or chain less than
5 m (16 feet) long. Attach a white or
red cloth (about 30 cm (12 inches)
wide) in the middle of the cable or
chain for easy visibility.

[Drive carefully so the towing cable or
chain remains tight during towing.

[Before towing, check the Intelligent
Variable Transmission (IVT) /Dual
clutch transmission for fluid leaks
under your vehicle. If the Intelligent
Variable Transmission (IVT) /Dual
clutch transmission fluid is leaking,
flatbed equipment or a towing dolly
must be used.
NOTICE
Accelerate or decelerate the vehicle
in a slow and gradual manner while
maintaining tension on the tow rope
or chain to start or drive the vehicle,
otherwise tow hooks and the vehicle
may be damaged.
NOTICE
To avoid damage to your vehicle and
vehicle components when towing:

[Always pull straight ahead when
using the towing hooks. Do not pull
from the side or at a vertical angle.

[Do not use the towing hooks to pull
a vehicle out of mud, sand or other
conditions from which the vehicle
cannot be driven out under its own
power.

[Limit the vehicle speed to 10mph
(15km/h) and drive less than 1 mile
(1.5 km) when towing to avoid serious
damage to Intelligent variable
transmission.

[The Intelligent variable transmission
vehicle can be towed to a normal
vehicle only without oil leakage.
Check for oil leaks. Towing the
vehicle with oil leakage may damage
the transmission.
