X-MODE
speed is 12 mph ( 20 km / h ) or more , X-MODE will not be activated . At this time , a buzzer will sound twice .
. If the vehicle speed reaches 25 mph ( 40 km / h ) or more while X-MODE is activated , a buzzer will sound once and X-MODE will be deactivated . X-MODE will automatically reactivate when the vehicle speed drops below 22 mph ( 35 km / h ). – When you use the cruise control after X-MODE is automatically deactivated , X-MODE will not be automatically reactivated when the vehicle speed drops below 22 mph ( 35 km / h ).
. If the engine could overheat because of a temperature increase of the engine coolant , it may not be possible to activate X-MODE . Even while X-MODE is activated , X-MODE will be deactivated when the engine coolant temperature increases . . The Auto Start Stop system will be stopped while X-MODE is activated .
NOTE
. The SI-DRIVE mode will change to the Intelligent ( I ) mode when X-MODE is deactivated .
. The SI-DRIVE mode cannot be changed while X-MODE is activated . At this time , a buzzer will sound twice .
. X-MODE will be deactivated if any of the following conditions is met while the engine is running . – The CHECK ENGINE warning light / malfunction indicator light illuminates .
– The AT OIL TEMP warning light flashes .
– The ABS warning light illuminates .
– The Vehicle Dynamics Control warning light illuminates .
When this occurs , it is not possible to activate X-MODE . Also , for models with SI-DRIVE , type A changes to the Sport ( S ) mode , and type B remains in the state that was in effect before the warning light turned on . In this case , it is not possible to change to another mode . For information on the types of SI-DRIVE , refer to “ SI-DRIVE switches ” FP326 .
. If there is a possibility that the engine could overheat because of a temperature increase of the engine coolant , it is not possible to change to X-MODE . While the vehicle is in X-MODE , it changes to the Sport ( S ) mode or Sport Sharp ( S #) mode when the engine coolant temperature increases .
. It is not possible to activate X-MODE when the engine is not running , because the hill descent control function is not activated .
. When X-MODE automatically reactivates , the hill descent control function also reactivates .
& Hill descent control function
S07BI03
The hill descent control function will be in standby mode when X-MODE is activated and the vehicle speed is less than approximately 12 mph ( 20 km / h ).
The function will operate when the vehicle speed is less than approximately 12 mph ( 20 km / h ) and the accelerator ratio is less than approximately 10 %.
The function will turn off when the vehicle speed is more than approximately 12 mph ( 20 km / h ) and the accelerator pedal is depressed .
CAUTION
The braking power of the hill descent control function may not be sufficient when strong braking power is needed ( e . g ., when towing a trailer ).
