When Driving Operation of i-stop Function The i-stop function automatically stops the engine when the vehicle is stopped at a traffic light or stuck in traffic, and then restarts the engine automatically to resume driving. The system provides improved fuel economy, reduced exhaust gas emissions, and eliminates idling noise while the engine is stopped. Engine idle stopping and restarting NOTE • The i-stop indicator light (green) turns on under the following conditions: • When engine idling is stopped.
When Driving i-stop OFF Switch By pressing the switch until a beep sounds, the i-stop function is turned off and the i-stop warning light (amber) in the instrument cluster turns on. By pressing the switch again until the beep sounds, the i-stop function becomes operational and the i-stop warning light (amber) turns off. i-stop indicator light (green)/i-stop warning light (amber) i-stop indicator light (green) • When the engine idling is stopped.
When Driving Active Driving Display WARNING Adjust the brightness or the display position while paying attention to safe driving: If you do not pay attention to your driving while trying to make the adjustments, it could lead to an unexpected accident. Active driving display 8 For details, refer to Section 4, “Instrument Cluster and Display”.
When Driving Warning/Indicator Lights Some of the warning/indicator lights are displayed in the instrument cluster. If a warning/indicator light is displayed in the instrument cluster, verify the meaning of the warning in the Warning (Display Indication) item.
When Driving Automatic Transaxle Controls Lock-release button Various Lockouts: Indicates that you must depress the brake pedal and hold in the lock-release button to shift (The ignition must be switched ON). Indicates the selector lever can be shifted freely into any position. Indicates that you must hold in the lock-release button to shift. Drive Selection Drive selection is a system to switch the vehicle's drive mode.

When Driving i-ACTIVSENSE i-ACTIVSENSE is a collective term covering a series of advanced safety and driver support systems which make use of detection devices such as the forward sensing camera (FSC) and radar sensors. These systems consist of active safety and pre-crash safety systems. These systems are designed to assist the driver in safe driving by reducing the load on the driver and helping to avert collisions or reduce their severity.
When Driving Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) The Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system is designed to reduce damage in the event of a collision by operating the brake control (SCBS brake) when the system's laser sensor detects a vehicle ahead and determines that a collision with the vehicle ahead is unavoidable. It may also be possible to avoid a collision if the relative speed between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead is less than about 15 km/h (9.3 mph).
When Driving i-ELOOP System i-ELOOP is a regenerative braking system. When you depress the brake pedal or use engine braking, the kinetic energy that occurs is converted to electrical energy by the power generator and the converted electrical energy is stored in the storage device. The stored electricity is used as power to charge the battery and the vehicle's electrical devices.
When Driving i-ELOOP System DC-DC converter Variable voltage alternator Capacitor CAUTION High-current electricity flows through the following parts, therefore do not touch them. • Variable voltage alternator • DC-DC converter • Capacitor Control Status Display The i-ELOOP power generating status is displayed in the audio display. Indication on display Control status Displays the level of electricity generated by regenerative braking. Displays the amount of the electricity stored in the capacitor.
When Driving Tyre Pressure Monitoring System The Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) monitors the air pressure of all four tyres. If the air pressure of one or more tyres is too low, the system warns the driver by indicating the tyre pressure monitoring system warning light in the instrument cluster and operating a beep sound. In the following cases, system initialization must be performed so that the system operates normally. • A tyre pressure is adjusted. • Tyre rotation is performed.
Interior Features Air-Conditioning System (Fully Automatic Type) Temperature control dial Fan control dial A/C switch Air intake selector switch Mode selector dial Rear window defogger switch Operation of Automatic Air Conditioning 1. Set the mode selector dial to the AUTO position. 2. Set the air intake selector to the outside air position (indicator light turned off). 3. Set the fan control dial to the AUTO position. 4. Press the A/C switch to operate the air conditioning (turn indicator light on).
Maintenance and Care Owner Maintenance Precautions Routine Service We highly recommend that these items be inspected daily, or at least every week. • Engine Oil Level • Engine Coolant Level • Brake and Clutch Fluid Level • Washer Fluid Level • Battery Maintenance • Tyre Inflation Pressure SKYACTIV-G 1.3 and SKYACTIV-G 1.5 Windscreen washer fluid reservoir Brake/Clutch fluid reservoir Battery Engine oil dipstick Engine coolant reservoir SKYACTIV-D 1.
If Trouble Arises If Trouble Arises • Flat Tyre If you have a flat tyre, drive slowly to a level spot that is well off the road and out of the way of traffic to change the tyre. In the event of a flat tyre, use the emergency flat tyre repair kit to repair the tyre temporarily or use the temporary spare tyre. • Overheating 1. Drive safely to the side of the road and park off the right-of-way. 2. Check whether coolant or steam is escaping from the engine compartment.
