ISG (IDLE STOP AND GO) SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
Your vehicle may be equipped with the
ISG system, which reduces fuel con‐ sumption by automatically shutting
down the engine, when the vehicle is at
a standstill. (For example : red light, stop sign and traffic jam)
The engine starts automatically as
soon as the starting conditions are
met.
The ISG system is ON whenever the en‐ gine is running.
NOTICE
When the engine automatically
starts by the ISG system, some
warning lights (ABS, ESC, ESC OFF,
EPS or Parking brake warning light)
may turn on for a few seconds.
This happens because of low battery
voltage. It does not mean the sys‐
tem is malfunctioning.
Auto stop
To stop the engine in idle stop
mode
• Manual transaxle 1. Decrease the vehicle speed to less than 5 km/h.
2. Shift into N (Neutral) position.
3. Release the clutch pedal.
• Automatic transaxle 1. Decrease the vehicle speed to less than 5 km/h.
2. Press the brake pedal. The engine will stop and the green AU‐
TO STOP indicator (
) on the instru‐
ment cluster will illuminate. If your ve‐ hicle is equipped with a supervision
cluster, the notice will illuminate on the
LCD display.

•The FCA operates only for the ve‐hicle / pedestrian in front, whiledriving forward. It does not oper‐ate for any animals or vehicles inthe opposite direction.
•The FCA does not recognize thevehicle, which horizontally drivesacross the crossroad, or the vehi‐cle, which is parked in the horizon‐tal direction.
Limitation of the system
The FCA is an assistant system for a
driver in a certain risky driving condition
and it does not take every responsibili‐ ty for all risks from driving condition.
The FCA monitors the driving situations
through the radar and the camera sen‐
sor. Thus, for a situation out of the sensing range, the FCA may not nor‐
mally operate. The driver should pay
great caution in the following situa‐ tions. The FCA operation may be limi‐
ted.
Recognizing vehicles
- The radar or the camera is contami‐
nated with foreign substances.
- It heavily rains or snows. -
There is interruption by electric
waves.
- There is severe irregular reflection
from the radar.
- The vehicle in front has a narrow
body. (i.e. motor cycle and bicycle)
- The driver’s view is unclear due to
the backlight, the reflected light, or
darkness.
- The camera cannot contain the full
image of the vehicle in front.
- The vehicle in front is a special vehi‐
cle, such as a heavily-loaded truck or
a trailer.
The vehicle in front does not turn ON
the rear lights, does not have rear
lights, has asymmetric rear lights, or
has rear lights out of angle.
- The outside brightness is greatly
changed, such as entering/exiting the tunnel.
- The vehicle driving is unstable.
- The radar/camera sensor recognition
is limited.
- Driving on unpaved and uneven road
surfaces, or through sudden gradient changes. -
In construction zones or on railroad
tracks, or there are metallic objects
on the road.
- Driving indoors such as in an under‐
ground parking lot.
- Driving on a curve
The FCA performance decreases
while driving on a curve. The FCA may
not recognize the vehicle in front even in the same lane. It may unnec‐
essarily produce the warning mes‐
sage and the warning alarm, or it
may not produce the warning mes‐
sage and the warning alarm at all.
While driving on a curve, pay great caution, and, if necessary, depress
the brake pedal.
