ENG A-STOP system (engine
auto stop start system)
(for K14D engine model)
The ENG A-STOP system (engine auto
stop start system) automatically stops and
restarts the engine when decelerating
before stopping and when the vehicle is
stopped, such as at a traffic signal, in order
to reduce exhaust gases, fuel consumption
and lower engine noise.
• This system automatically stops the
engine under certain conditions. When
the vehicle will be stopped for a long
time or when you will leave the vehicle
unattended, set the parking brake firmly,
and then push the engine switch to stop
the engine.
• If certain conditions are met, the engine
is stopped automatically when decelerat-
ing (approximately 15 km/h (9 mph) or
less) before stopping. However, the
engine will not be stopped automatically
during deceleration until confirmation of
the system function is finished.
NOTE:
If your vehicle is equipped with the auto air
conditioning system, you can change the
automatic engine stop condition via the
information display. Refer to “Setting
mode” in “Information display” in “BEFORE
DRIVING” section.
