Gearshift indicator
61MM0A133
(1) Gearshift indicator
In the following cases, the gearshift indica-
tor is indicated on the information display
when the ignition switch is in “ON” position
or the ignition mode is “ON”.
• When the gearshift lever is in a position
other than “N” (Neutral).
• For vehicles equipped with the cruise
control, when the system is not in use.The electronic control system monitors
driving conditions (such as vehicle speed
and/or engine revolution), and it shows
which gear position is appropriate for your
driving with the indication on the display.
If the UP/DOWN arrow and a gear position
other than what is currently selected are
indicated on the display while driving, we
recommend that you shift the gear up or
down to indicated position. This is the
appropriate gear position for a driving con-
dition that reduces the over revolution and
stress to the engine, and improves fuel
consumption.
For details on how to use the transaxle,
refer to “Using transaxle” in this section.NOTE:
• The gearshift indicator is not indicated
when the gear position is in “N” (Neu-
tral).
• If you depress the clutch pedal while UP/
DOWN arrow is indicated, the indication
will disappear.
• In ordinary driving, UP arrow will disap-
pear when you release your foot from
the accelerator pedal.
If your vehicle is equipped with the adap-
tive cruise control and while it is working,
however, UP/DOWN arrow may be indi-
cated continuously depending on driv-
ing conditions. It means that the
indicated gear position is appropriate for
the current cruising speed.
• The indication of gearshift indicator tim-
ing may differ depending on the vehicle
condition and/or driving situation even in
the same vehicle speed and engine rev-
olution.
• If any of the electrical systems such as
the radar brake support system or the
ESP
® is working, the gearshift indicator
will disappear temporarily.
(1)
EXAMPLE
WA R N I N G
The gearshift indicator is designed to
indicate the appropriate gear position
for your driving, however, this indica-
tor does not relieve the driver of any
responsibility to operate gear
changes attentively.
To drive safely, do not focus your
attention on the gearshift indicator,
pay attention to your driving situation
and shift up or down if necessary.

(2) Deceleration control
(A vehicle ahead is within radar range
and going slower than the set speed)
54P000343
Your vehicle slows down, and maintains
the same speed as the speed of the vehi-
cle ahead to maintain the following dis-
tance.
• Possible detecting distance between
your vehicle and a vehicle ahead is
within about 100 m (328 ft).
(3) Following control
(A vehicle ahead is within radar range
and going at a steady speed)
54P000344
Your vehicle follows the vehicle ahead,
keeping a constant distance, without
exceeding the set speed.NOTE:
• When your vehicle is getting close to the
vehicle ahead while deceleration control
or following control is functioning, a fron-
tal collision warning is activated.
• When operating brake pedal during fol-
lowing control, you might feel that a
brake is heavy. However, this is normal
in the brake system. This occurs
because of the feature of adaptive cruise
control system.
(4) Acceleration control
(A vehicle ahead goes out of range)
54P000345
The adaptive cruise control system accel-
erates your vehicle to the set speed, and
then maintains it.
Situations where radar will not acti-vate properly
Under the following situations, there is a
high possibility that deceleration control,
following control and acceleration control
will not function properly, even if a vehicle
ahead is within radar range.
• When vehicle is driven in a traffic jam
• When vehicle is driven on sharp curves
• When vehicle is driven on slippery road
such as ice or snow-covered road
• When vehicle is driven on steep hill
54P000376
• When vehicle is driven on the road with
many steep uphills and downhills
• When your vehicle is towing a trailer

Do not use the adaptive cruise con-
trol system under the following situa-
tions. Otherwise, the system will not
function properly and unexpected
accidents may occur.

• Highway gate
• When the vehicle cannot move in a
straight manner without consistently
steering, due to an accident or break-
down
• When the vehicle is running left turn lane
or right turn lane
• When the radiator grill or front bumper
hit a hard object

or malfunctioning, some of the following
indicator and messages will come on:

ing light

sage
– “RADAR BRAKE SUPPORT: NOT
ACTIVE BY SENSOR.” message
– “RADAR BRAKE SUPPORT SYS
INSPECTION REQUIRED” message
– “RADAR BRAKE SUPPORT FCN
TEMPORARILY DISABLED” message
Situations where radar may not activate properly
Under the following situations, the radar
may not detect a vehicle ahead correctly
and frontal collision warning may not func-
tion. You need to decelerate the vehicle
operating brakes as necessary.
• When a vehicle ahead is running slowly
or stopping at the end of the line in a traf-
fic jam or the tollgate
• When the vehicle is approaching repair-
ing road
• While running inside of tunnel
• When the radar sensor cover is covered
in snow, water or dirt
• When there is bad weather such as
heavy rain or fog, a blizzard or sand-
storm or when the vehicle in front of you
is surrounded by water, snow or sand
• A vehicle ahead has extremely small
rear end area such as an unloaded
trailer
• When your vehicle is weighed down by
heavy items in the luggage compartment
or rear seat
• When your vehicle is running at 160 km/
h (100 mph) or higher speed
• When a vehicle ahead is cutting in sud-
denly
54P000375
• When the bicycles or motorcycles are
running on the edge of your lane
EXAMPLE
WA R N I N G
Always drive safely with proper driv-
ing operations depending on traffic
situation.
