Operating conditions of ENG A-STOP systemStandby conditions
If all of the following conditions are met while driving, the automatic engine stop will be permitted.
• For CVT, the ENG A-STOP indicator light (green) will come on.
#1: If the battery is discharged, for example, if the vehicle has not been used for a long time or electrical components, such as the navi-
gation system or audio system, have not been used for a long ti me while the engine was stopped, it may take some time until th e
system can be in standby.
#2: If any of the warning and indi cator lights affecting the ENG A-STOP system come on, the e ngine will not be stopped automati cally.
#3: The system will be in standby even though the gearshift leve r is in the “N” position, however, the engine will be stopped automati-
cally when the vehicl e is stopped, instead of when it is decelerating (approximately 13 km/ h or less) before stopping.
#4: After the ENG A-STOP indicator light (green) comes on, there may be a signal to prevent stopping the engine. In this case, the ENG
A-STOP indicator light (green) goes off when the vehicle is sto pped, and the engine is not stopped automatically. Also, if any of the
warning and indi cator lights affecting the ENG A-STOP system co me on, the engine will not be stopped automatically.
When the engine is started • The
engine is started with the engine hood securely closed.
When driving Common• The ENG A-STOP system is
not deactivated (OFF).
• The battery is charged more than a certain amount, and the tem perature inside the battery is within
the specified range. (#1)
• The engine coolant temperature i s within the specified range.
• The driver’s seat belt is fastened.
• The driver’s door is securely closed.
• The engine hood is s ecurely closed.
• The air from the outlets is su fficiently cooled while cooling or sufficiently warmed while heating.
• The defroster is turned off.
Manual
transaxle • There is no signal to prevent stopping the engine from any ele
ctronic control systems other than the
ENG A-STOP system. (#2)
CVT • The gearshift lever is in the
“D” or “N” position. (#3)
• The manual mode is not in use.
• There is no signal to prevent stopping the engine from any ele ctronic control systems other than the

OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
75RM4-01E
Be careful of the following when operat-
ing with the cruise control
Even if your vehicle is equipped with the
dual camera brake support, it cannot auto-
matically adjust to the speed of the vehicle
in front of you. Turn off the cruise control
system if you cannot operate safely at a
cruising speed.
Even in the following conditions, the set
indicator (5) will not go off and the cruising
speed will not be canceled.
• When the frontal collision warning isworking. If you depress the brake pedal,
the cruise speed will be canceled tempo-
rarily.
• When the stereo camera detects dirt on
the windshield and the dual camera
brake support stops functioning. For
safety purposes, push the cruise switch
(1) to turn off the cru ise indicator (4).
If the automatic brake system is working,
the cruise indicator (4) will turn off and the
cruise control system will be canceled.
Once you have determined that the condi-
tions are once again safe, reset the cruise
speed.
Changing speed temporarilyWhen the cruising speed is maintained,
you can temporarily accelerate or deceler-
ate.
To accelerate, depre ss the accelerator
pedal. When you take your foot off the
pedal, your vehicle will return to the set
speed.
To decelerate, depress the brake pedal.
The set speed will be canceled and the set
indicator (5) or “SET” indicator light (7) will
go off.
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) again when vehicle speed is
above 45 km/h (28 mph). The vehicle will
accelerate to and maintain the previously
set speed.
NOTE:
For CVT with manual mode or Auto Gear
Shift vehicle, when the cruising speed is
maintained, you cannot decelerate by
using the engine brake even if you down-
shift from higher gear to 3rd in the manual
mode.
To decelerate while the cruise control is
on, depress the brake pedal or push down
the “RES +/SET –” switch (3).
Changing cruising speedUsing the accelerator pedal
To reset at a faster cruising speed, accel-
erate to the desired speed using the accel-
erator pedal and push down the “RES +/
SET –” switch (3). The new speed will be
maintained.
Using the brake pedal
To reset at a slower cruising speed, decel-
erate to the desired speed using the brake
pedal and push down the “RES +/SET –”
switch (3). The new speed will be main-
tained.
NOTE:
When the brake pedal is depressed, the
set indicator (5) or “ SET” indicator light (7)
goes off until the cruising speed is reset.
Using “RES +/ SET –” switch
To reset at a faster cruising speed, press
repeatedly or hold push up the “RES +/
SET –” switch (3). Vehicle speed will
steadily increase. When you release the
switch, the new speed will be maintained.
To reset at a slower cruising speed, press
repeatedly or hold push down the “RES +/
SET –” switch (3) until the vehicle has
slowed to the desired speed, and then
release the switch. The new speed will be
maintained.

• The lane departure warning may not be suitable for every situation.
Also, the system is not designed to
avoid the lane deviations automati-
cally. Do not rely excessively on
the system and always drive in a
safe manner.
• Depending on road surface condi-
tions, you may not feel the vibra-
tion of the steering wheel even
when the lane departure warning
works.
• For safety reasons, do not check
the operation of the system by
yourself.
