Idle Stop and Go helps reduce fuel
consumption by automatically shutting
down the engine, when the vehicle is
at a standstill (for example, red stop
light, stop sign, and traffic jam) subject
to certain prerequisite conditions being
satisfied as listed below.
The engine is automatically started upon
satisfying the starting conditions.
ISG system is always active, when the
engine is running.
Information
When the engine is automatically started
by ISG system, warning lights (for
example, ABS, ESC, ESC OFF, EPS,
and parking brake warning light) may
illuminate for a few seconds due to low
battery voltage.
However, it does not indicate a
malfunction with ISG system.
