If the engine restarts automatically by the Smart ISG system, AUTO STOP is displayed in the utility view mode on the instrument cluster.

  • Even when the leading vehicle drives away, the Smart ISG system may not restart the engine because of limitations of the front view camera that detects the leading vehicle's movement. For more information, refer to the "Limitations of Smart ISG" section in this chapter.

  • If the engine is turned off by ISG, it can be restarted anytime by releasing the brake pedal, regardless of the Smart ISG system.
