Virtual Engine Sound System
The Virtual Engine Sound System generates engine sound for pedestrians to hear vehicle sound because there is no sound while the Electric Vehicle (EV) is operating.
If the vehicle is in the ready 
mode and the gear is not in P (Park), the VESS will operate.
When the gear is shifted to R (Reverse), an additional warning sound will be heard.
CAUTION
The vehicle does not operate a sound. Be aware of your driving environment and drive safely.
After you park the vehicle or while you are waiting at a traffic light, check whether there are children or obstacles around the vehicle.
