Operation of i-stop Function
The i-stop function automatically stops the engine when the vehicle is stopped at a
traffic light or stuck in traffic, and then restarts the engine automatically to resume
driving. The system provides improved fuel economy, reduced exhaust gas
emissions, and eliminates idling noise while the engine is stopped.
• After parking the vehicle, make sure that the ignition is switched OFF. There is
the possibility of the vehicle moving if the vehicle is parked while i-stop is
operating.
• The i-stop indicator light (green) turns on under the following conditions:
• When engine idling is stopped.
• The i-stop indicator light (green) turns off when the engine is restarted.
The i-stop function restart conditions differ depending on the system used.
For details, refer to Section 4, "Start/Stop Engine".
