A point system is used so you can
monitor your driving style and the
impact on f uel economy. Points are:Accumulatedwhenyourdriving

Deducted when your style is not
f uel ef f icient
Your current
trip is represented on the Eco Guide
screen, starting without any leaves
on the plants. Leaves then
accumulate during the current trip,
as long as you maintain an economic
driving style.
Eco Assist scoring is displayed on
the multi-information display in the

A total of two leaves can be put on each plant icon.
A total of four leaves can be added to each plant icon.
A circular shaped icon, which represents a blossom, can be
added on top of each plant icon with four leaves.
An icon appears once you have reached the maximum score for
each stage and are moving up to the next stage. These icons
appear briefly when the ignition switch is turned off.

continues to monitor your driving. If you maintain a fuel
efficient driving style, your score remains at the highest stage.
If you drive less ef ficiently, points will be deducted and you
maydrop(stagedown)tothepreviousstage.
Real time scores must accumulate over time to result in a stage change. In order to build lif etime
points and advance to the next stage, you need to keep your efficient driving style every time you
make a trip. It can take several months to move from one stage to the next. Individual results will
vary.
