4-1. Before driving
■“ECO Accelerator Guidance” (P. 130)
It is easier to drive in an Eco-friendly manner by driving whil e referring to the
“ECO Accelerator Guidance” display. Also, by using the “ECO Accelerator
Guidance”, it is easier to increase the Eco score evaluation.
● When starting off:
While staying within the “ECO Accelerator Guidance” range, gradually
depress the accelerator pedal and accelerate to the desired spe ed. If exces-
sive acceleration is avoided, the “Eco-Start” score will increa se.
● When driving:
After accelerating to the desired speed, release the accelerato r pedal and
drive at a stable speed within the “ECO Accelerator Guidance” range. By
keeping the vehicle within the “ECO Accelerator Guidance” range, the “Eco-
Cruise” score will increase.
● When stopping:
When stopping the vehicle, early releasing the accelerator peda l will cause
the “Eco-Stop” score to increase.
■ Drive-Start Control (DSC)
When the TRAC is turned off ( P. 417), sudden start restraint control also
does not operate. If your vehicle have trouble escaping from th e mud or fresh
snow due to sudden start restraint control operation, deactivat e TRAC
( P. 417) so that the vehicle may become able to escape from the mud or
fresh snow.

mended:
