OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
80SS5-01E
While the engine is stopped automatically,
depressing the clutch pedal will restart the
engine consuming fuel. Therefore, for fuel
economy, it is recommended to depress
the clutch pedal just before the vehicle
start.
• Without depressing the clutch pedal, the
engine may restart automatically if the
automatic engine restart conditions are
met.
For details, refer to the section, “Auto-
matic engine restart conditions”.
• When restarting the engine, keeping
brake force temporarily prevents the
vehicle from moving forward by the
creeping function. Also, this prevents the
vehicle from rolling downward on a hill.
For details, refer to the section “Hill hold
control system”.
NOTE:
When the engine is restarted automati-
cally, the following conditions may be
found as the hill hold control system is acti-
vated, but this is not a malfunction.
• You may hear a sound from the engine
room.
• As brake pedal becomes heavy, it may
be difficult for you to depress it.
CVT vehicles
1) Depress the brake pedal to decelerate
while the gearshift lever is in the “D”
position will automatically stop the
engine before the vehicle is stopped
(approximately 13 km/h or less). At the
same time, the ENG A-STOP indicator
light (green) will remain on.
• The engine is not stopped automati-
cally if all of the conditions to stop the
engine automatically are not met,
even if the brake pedal is pressed
down to decelerate.
For details on the conditions for auto-
matically stopping the engine, refer to
“Conditions to stop the engine auto-
matically” in this section.
• To ensure safety when the engine is
stopped automatically, the interior
buzzer may sound and the engine
will stall, or the engine may be
restarted.

NOTE:
• The engine is not stopped automatically
when decelerating without depressing
the brake pedal, for example, by using
engine braking.
• The engine may be stopped automati-
cally when the vehicle is stopped, even if
the engine is not stopped automatically
before stopping the vehicle (approxi-
mately 13 km/h or less).
• Electrical components, such as the navi-
gation system or audio system, can be
used while the engine has been stopped
automatically, however, the air condi-
tioner switches to the ventilation posi-
tion.
• For the automatic heating and air condi-
tioning system, airflow is limited (only
under automatic operation) when the
engine is stopped automatically, in order
to improve the cooling and heating per-
formance.
