Deceleration Paddle Selector

In the following situations, the stage may not change
and the stage icon will blink even if you pull back the
selector. The deceleration stage may decrease or
cancel automatically:

The High Voltage battery is fully charged or its
temperature is too cold or too hot.

The speed of the vehicle is beyond the deceleration
range with SPORT mode off.

Hybrid system protection is needed.

The paddle selector is operated while your vehicle
is stopped automatically by ACC with Low Speed
Follow.

If either paddle selector is operated, ACC with Low
Speed Follow will cancel automatically.

helps to stabilize the vehicle during cornering if the vehicle turns more or less

than what was intended. It also assists in maintaining traction on slippery surfaces.
It does so by regulating engine and motor output and selectively applying the
brakes.

When VSA

activates, you may notice that the

engine and motor do not respond to the
accelerator. You may also notice some noise
from the hydraulic brake system. You will also
see the indicator blink.

When the VSA

while driving, there may be a problem with the
system. While this may not interfere with normal
driving, have your vehicle checked by a dealer
immediately.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

Driving

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

Instead of directly measuring the pressure in each tire, the TPMS on this vehicle
monitors and compares the rolling radius and rotational characteristics of each
wheel and tire while you are driving to determine if one or more tires are
significantly under-inflated.

This will cause the low tire pressure/TPMS
indicator to come on and a message to appear
on the driver information interface.

1

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

The system does not monitor the tires when driving
at low speed.

Conditions such as low ambient temperature and
altitude change directly affect tire pressure and can
trigger the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator to come
on.

Tire pressure checked and inflated in:

Warm weather can become under-inflated in
colder weather.

Cold weather can become overinflated in warmer
weather.

The low tire pressure/TPMS indicator will not come
on as a result of overinflation.

The TPMS may not function properly if tire type and
size are mixed. Make sure to use the same size and
type of tire.

2

Checking and Maintaining Tires

P. 564

The low tire pressure/TPMS indicator may come on
with a delay or may not come on at all when:

You rapidly accelerate, decelerate, or turn the
steering wheel.

You drive on snowy or slippery roads.

Tire chains are used.

The low tire pressure/TPMS indicator may come on
under the following conditions:

There is a heavier and uneven load on the tires than
the condition at calibration.

Tire chains are used.

TPMS Calibration

The calibration process requires approximately 30
minutes of cumulative driving at speeds between 30-
60 mph (48-97 km/h).
During this period, if the power mode is set to ON
and the vehicle is not moved within 45 seconds, you
may notice the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator
comes on briefly. This is normal and indicates that the
calibration process is not yet complete.

If the Tire chains are installed, remove them before
calibrating the TPMS.

If the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator comes on even
when the properly inflated specified regular tires are
installed, have your vehicle checked by a dealer.

We recommend that the tires be replaced with the
same brand, model, and size as the originals. Ask a
dealer for details.

Driving

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - Required
Federal Explanation

Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked
monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure
recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard
or tire inflation pressure label.

(If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated
on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should
determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)

As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with
a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low
tire pressure telltale

when one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated.

Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you
should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate
them to the proper pressure.

Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to
overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces
fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s
handling and stopping ability.

U.S. models

When Driving

u

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - Required Federal Explanation

Driving

Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire
maintenance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain
correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the
level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.

Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction
indicator to indicate when the system is not operating properly.
The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire
pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the
telltale will flash for approximately one minute and then remain
continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon
subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists.

When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may
not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended.

TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including
the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the
vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly.

Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or
more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the
replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to
continue to function properly.

Blind spot information System

*

Continued

Driving

Blind spot information System

*

Is designed to detect vehicles in specified alert zones adjacent to your vehicle,
particularly in harder to see areas commonly known as “blind spots.”

When the system detects vehicles approaching from behind in adjacent lanes, the
appropriate indicator comes on for a few seconds, providing assistance when you
change lanes.

How the system works

Blind spot information System

*

Important Safety Reminder

Like all assistance systems, blind spot information
system has limitations. Overreliance on blind spot
information system may result in a collision.

The blind spot information system alert indicator may
not come on under the following conditions:

A vehicle does not stay in the alert zone for more
than two seconds.

A vehicle is parked in a side lane.

The speed difference between your vehicle and the
vehicle you are passing is greater than 6 mph (10
km/h).

An object not detected by the radar sensors
approaches or passes your vehicle.

A vehicle running in the adjacent lane is a
motorcycle or other small vehicle.

3

WARNING

Failure to visually confirm that it is safe to
change lanes before doing so may result in
a crash and serious injury or death.
Do not rely only on the blind spot
information system when changing lanes.

Always look in your mirrors, to either side
of your vehicle, and behind you for other
vehicles before changing lanes.

Alert zone range

A: Approx. 1.6 ft. (0.5 m)

Making a short turn that slightly tilts the vehicle.

For a proper blind spot information system operation:

Always keep the rear bumper corner area clean.

Do not cover the rear bumper corner area with
labels or stickers of any kind.

bumper corner area or the radar sensors to be
repaired, or the rear bumper corner area is strongly
impacted.

High Voltage Battery

Driving

High Voltage Battery

The High Voltage battery gradually discharges even if the vehicle is not in use. As a
result, if your vehicle is parked for an extended period of time, the battery charge
level will become low. Extended periods of time at a low state of charge will shorten
battery life. To maintain the battery state of charge, drive your vehicle for more than
30 minutes at least once every three months.
Extreme high temperatures can affect the battery life. You can minimize the effects
by parking the vehicle in the shade during the summer.

1

High Voltage Battery

Be careful not to let the High Voltage battery drain
too much. If the battery level becomes close to zero,
it will make it impossible to start the engine.
