brake pedal with the gearshift lever is in
the "D" or "N" position. After the engine
is stopped automatically, the idling stop
indicator light (green) will come on.

automatic engine stop conditions are
not met. For details, refer to "Condi-
tions to restart the engine automati-
cally" in this section.
• During the automatic engine stop, the
engine may shut down, accompanied
by an interior buzzer or restarted, to
ensure safety.
NOTE:
• The engine is not stopped automatically
when decelerating without depressing
the brake pedal, for example, by using
engine braking.
• Electrical components, such as the navi-
gation system or the audio system, can
be used while the engine has been
stopped automatically, however, the air
conditioner switches to the ventilation
position.
• 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.
