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

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.

pedal, regardless of the Smart ISG system.
