Selecting shift ranges in the D position

To drive using temporary shift range selection, operate the “-” or “+” paddle shift switch.
When the “-” paddle shift switch is operated, the shift range switches to a range that enables
engine braking force that is suitable to driving conditions. When the “+” paddle shift switch is
operated, the shift range switches to a range that is one range higher than the current range.
Changing the shift range allows restriction of the highest gear, preventing unnecessary
upshifting and enabling the level of engine braking force to be selected.

1

Upshifting

2

Downshifting

The selected shift range, from D1 to D8, will
be displayed on the meter.

To return to normal D position driving, the
“+” paddle shift switch must be held down
for a period of time.

■

Shift ranges and their functions

D2 - D8

D1 1st gear is set

A lower shift range will provide greater engine braking forces than a higher shift range.

A gear in the range between 1 and the selected gear is automati-

cally chosen depending on vehicle speed and driving conditions

21

Selecting gears in the M position

To enter M mode, shift the shift position to M. Gears can be selected by operating the pad­dle shift switches, allowing you to drive in the gear of your choosing.

Downshifting

The gear changes once every time the pad­dle shift switch is operated.

The selected gear, from M1 to M8, will be
fixed and displayed on the meter.

When in the M position, the gear will not change unless the paddle shift switches are oper­ated. Also, the gear will not shift when the vehicle speed is low, even if an upshift operation is
performed.
However, even when in the M position, the gears will be automatically changed in the fol­lowing situations:

● When vehicle speed drops (downshift only).

● When it is necessary to protect the engine or automatic transmission when the engine

coolant temperature is low, the automatic transmission fluid temperature is high or low,
or other reasons.
