To activate:

Press the X-mode switch. While the Xmode is activated, the X-mode indicator light illuminates.

To deactivate:

Press the X-mode switch again. The Xmode indicator light will turn off when the X-mode is deactivated.

NOTE

● Even if you try to activate the Xmode by pressing the X-mode switch when the vehicle speed is 12 mph (20 km/h) or more, the 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 the X-mode is activated, a buzzer will sound once and the X-mode will be deactivated.

NOTE

For models with SI-DRIVE: ● The SI-DRIVE mode will change to the Intelligent (I) mode when the Xmode is deactivated.

● The SI-DRIVE mode cannot be changed while the X-mode is activated. At this time, a buzzer will sound twice.

● While the engine is running, if the CHECK ENGINE warning light/malfunction indicator light illuminates, the Xmode is deactivated and the SI-DRIVE mode changes to the Sport (S) mode. In this case, it is not possible to change to the Sport Sharp (S#) mode, Intelligent (I) mode or X-mode.

● 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 the X-mode. While the vehicle is in the X-mode, it changes to the Sport (S) mode when the engine coolant temperature increases.
