Driving assist systems
◆ABS (Anti-lock Brake System)
Helps to prevent wheel lock when the brakes are applied suddenly,
or if the brakes are applied while driving on a slippery road surface
◆Brake assist
Generates an increased level of braking force after the brake pedal
is depressed when the system detects a panic stop situation
◆VSC (Vehicle Stability Control) (if equipped)
Helps the driver to control skidding when swerving suddenly or
turning on slippery road surfaces
◆TRC (Traction Control) (vehicles with a VSC system)
Helps to maintain drive power and prevent the drive wheels from
spinning when starting the vehicle or accelerating on slippery roads
◆EPS (Electric Power Steering)
Employs an electric motor to reduce the amount of effort needed to
turn the steering wheel
◆Hill-start assist control (vehicles with a VSC system)
Prevents the vehicle from rolling backward when starting on a
incline or slippery slope.
◆Emergency brake signal
When the brakes are applied suddenly, the emergency flashers
automatically flash to alert the vehicle behind.
To help enhance driving safety and performance, the following
systems operate automatically in response to various driving
situations. Be aware, however, that these systems are supple-
mentary and should not be relied upon too heavily when operat-
ing the vehicle.

■Sounds and vibrations caused by the ABS, brake assist, VSC and TRC
systems
● A sound may be heard from the engine compartment when the engine is
started or just after the vehicle begins to move. This sound does not indicate
that a malfunction has occurred in any of these systems.
● Any of the following conditions may occur when the above systems are
operating. None of these indicates that a malfunction has occurred.
• Vibrations may be felt through the vehicle body and steering.
• A motor sound may be heard after the vehicle comes to a stop.
• The brake pedal may pulsate slightly after the ABS is activated.
• The brake pedal may move down slightly after the ABS is activated.
■ EPS operation sound
When the steering wheel is operated, a motor sound (whirring sound) may be
heard. This does not indicate a malfunction.
■ Automatic reactivation of TRC and VSC systems
After turning the TRC and VSC systems off, the systems will be automatically
reactivated in the following situations:
● When the engine switch is turned to the “LOCK” position (vehicles without a
smart entry & start system) or off (vehicles with a smart entry & start sys-
tem).
● If only the TRC system is turned off, the TRC will turn on when vehicle
speed increases
If both the TRC and VSC systems are turned off, automatic reactivation will
not occur when vehicle speed increases.
■ Reduced effectiveness of the EPS system
The effectiveness of the EPS system is reduced to prevent the system from
overheating when there is frequent steering input over an extended period of
time. The steering wheel may feel heavy as a result. Should this occur, refrain
from excessive steering input or stop the vehicle and turn the engine off. The
EPS system should return to normal within 10 minutes.
■ Operating conditions of hill-start assist control
When the following four conditions are met, the hill-start assist control will
operate:
● Vehicles with a multi-mode manual transmission: The shift lever is in a posi-
tion other than N (when starting off forward/backward on an upward incline).
● The vehicle is stopped.
● The accelerator pedal is not depressed.
● The parking brake is not engaged.

■ Automatic system cancelation of hill-start assist control
The hill-start assist control will turn off in any of the following situations:
● Vehicles with a multi-mode manual transmission: The shift lever is moved to
N.
● The accelerator pedal is depressed.
● The parking brake is engaged.
● Approximately 2 seconds elapse after the brake pedal is released.
■ Operating conditions of emergency brake signal
When the following three conditions are met, the emergency brake signal will
operate:
● The emergency flashers are off.
● Actual vehicle speed is over 55 km/h (35 mph).
● The brake pedal is depressed in a manner that cause the system to judge
from the vehicle deceleration that this is a sudden braking operation.
■ Automatic system cancelation of emergency brake signal
The emergency brake signal will turn off in any of the following situations:
● The emergency flashers are turned on.
● The brake pedal is released.
● The system judges from the vehicle deceleration that is not a sudden brak-
ing operation.
WARNING
■ The ABS does not operate effectively when
● The limits of tire gripping performance have been exceeded (such as
excessively worn tires on a snow covered road).
● The vehicle hydroplanes while driving at high speed on wet or slick roads.
■ Stopping distance when the ABS is operating may exceed that of nor-
mal conditions
The ABS is not designed to shorten t he vehicle’s stopping distance. Always
maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you, especially in the
following situations:
● When driving on dirt, gravel or snow-covered roads
● When driving with tire chains
● When driving over bumps in the road
● When driving over roads with potholes or uneven surfaces
■ TRC may not operate effectively when
Directional control and power may not be achievable while driving on slip-
pery road surfaces, even if the TRC system is operating.
Drive the vehicle carefully in conditions where stability and power may be
lost.

2606-1. Using the air conditioning system and defogger
AYGO_EE_OM99J92E
■Fogging up of the windows (type B only)
● The windows will easily fog up when the humidity in the vehicle is high.
Turning on will dehumidify the air from the outlets and defog the wind-
shield effectively.
● If you turn off, the windows may fog up more easily.
● The windows may fog up if the recirculated air mode is used.
■ Outside/recirculated air mode (type B only)
When driving on dusty roads such as tunnels or in heavy traffic, set the out-
side/recirculated air mode button to the recirculated air mode. This is effective
in preventing outside air from entering the vehicle interior. During cooling
operation, setting the recirculated air m ode will also cool the vehicle interior
effectively.
■ When the outside temperature falls to nearly 0°C (32°F) (type B only)
The dehumidification function may not operate even when is pressed.
■ Ventilation and air conditioning odors (type B only)
● To let fresh air in, set the air conditioning system to the outside air mode.
● During use, various odors from inside and outside the vehicle may enter into
and accumulate in the air conditioning system. This may then cause odor to
be emitted from the vents.
● To reduce potential odors from occurring:
It is recommended that the air conditioning system be set to outside air
mode prior to turning the vehicle off.
■ An odor comes from the air conditioning system due to the Stop & Start
system operation (vehicles with a Stop & Start system)
When the engine is stopped due to the Stop & Start system, an odor caused
by moisture may be detected. This does not indicate a malfunction.

3127-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
AYGO_EE_OM99J92E
WARNING
■ Maintenance of the tires (vehicles with the tire pressure warning sys-
tem)
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly
when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehi-
cle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label (tire
and load information label). (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than
the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label [tire
and load information label], you should determine the proper tire inflation
pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire
pressure monitoring system (TPMS-tire pressure warning system) that illu-
minates a low tire pressure telltale (tire pressure warning light) when one or
more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low
tire pressure telltale (tire pressure warning light) illuminates, you should
stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the
proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire
to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel effi-
ciency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping
ability.
Please note that the TPMS (tire pressure warning system) is not a substi-
tute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to main-
tain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to
trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale (tire pressure
warning light).
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS (tire pressure warning
system) malfunction indicator to indicate when the system is not operating
properly. The TPMS (tire pressure warning system) malfunction indicator is
combined with the low tire pressure telltale (tire pressure warning light).
When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approxi-
mately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This
sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the
malfunction exists. When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the sys-
tem may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS (tire pressure warning system) malfunctions may occur for a variety
of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or
wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS (tire pressure warning system)
from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS (tire pressure warning
system) malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on
your vehicle to ensure that the repl acement or alternate tires and wheels
allow the TPMS (tire pressure warning system) to continue to function prop-
erly.
