Intelligent Traction Management System*
Adjusts vehicle handling performance while driving on various road surfaces.
Press the Mode button to select one of four
appropriate modes. The mode you select appears on
the MID.
Normal:
Provides balanced driving performance on
most road surfaces.
Snow:
Use when driving on snowy road surfaces.
Mud*:
Use when driving on muddy roads or off-road
surfaces.
Sand*:
Use when driving on soft, sandy road or off-
road surfaces.
Cruise control/adaptive cruise control* is not available
when Snow, Mud, or Sand is selected.
Auto Idle Stop*
Automatically stops and restarts the engine to help maximize fuel economy,
depending on environmental and vehicle conditions.
Activating Auto Idle Stop
When the vehicle stops with the gear position in
Drive (D) and the brake pedal is pressed, the engine
turns off and the auto idle stop indicator appears if
conditions permit.
When you release the brake pedal, turn the steering
wheel, or press the accelerator pedal, the engine
restarts and the vehicle begins to move.
Auto idle stop does not activate (or the engine may automatically restart) when
the driver’s seat belt is unfastened, the vehicle is stopped on a steep hill, the
windshield defroster is on, and other conditions.
Turning the System On or Off
Press the Auto Idle Stop Off button to turn the
system off. The amber auto idle stop indicator
comes on. Press the button again to turn it on.

Press the ECON button to turn the system on or off.
The ECON Mode indicator appears when the system
is turned on.
Ambient Meter
Color-coded bars around the speedometer change
based on your driving style and brake or accelerator
pedal operation.
Green:
Fuel efficient driving
Light green:
Moderate acceleration/deceleration
White:
Aggressive acceleration/deceleration
Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA
®
), aka Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) System
Helps to stabilize the vehicle during cornering if the vehicle turns more or less
than what was intended. It assists in maintaining traction on slippery surfaces by
regulating engine output and selectively applying the brakes.
Turning VSA On or Off
VSA is turned on every time you start the engine,
even if you previously turned it off. If you turn VSA
off, your vehicle has normal braking and cornering
ability, but traction and stability enhancement
become less effective.
Press and hold the VSA OFF button until you hear a
beep to turn VSA on or off. The VSA OFF indicator
appears when the system is off.
Traction control stops functioning, which may make it easier when trying to free
your vehicle if it is stuck in mud or snow.
