Your vehicle may be equipped with the ISG system, which improves fuel economy by automatically turning off the engine when the vehicle is stopped. (Example: red light, stop sign, and traffic jams)

The engine restarts automatically as soon as the start conditions are met.

The ISG system is activated while the engine is running.

✽ NOTICE

When the engine is automatically restarted by the ISG system, some warning lights may illuminate. (ABS, ESC, ESC OFF, EPS, or parking brake warning light) may illuminate for a few seconds.

This is caused by low battery voltage. It does not mean that the system is malfunctioning.
