■Shift position purpose
*1: To improve fuel efficiency and reduce noises, set the shift lever in the D position for nor-
mal driving.
*2: Any gear range can be fixed when driving in M mode.
■Selecting shift ranges in the D position
To drive using temporary shift range selection, operate the “-” or “+” paddle shift switch.
Changing the shift range allows restriction of the highest gear, preventing unnecessary
upshifting and enabling the level of engine braking force to be selected.
Upshifting
Downshifting
6-speed models:
The selected shift range, from D1 to
D6, will be displayed in the meter.
8-speed models:
The selected shift range, from D1 to
D8, will be displayed in the meter.
To return to normal D position driving,
the “+” paddle shift switch must be held
down for a period of time.

When in the M position, the gear will not change unless the shift lever or paddle shift
switches are operated. However, even when in the M position, the gears will be automati-
cally changed in the following situation:
When vehicle speed drops (downshift only).
When the automatic transmission fluid or engine coolant temperature is low.
When automatic transmission fluid temperature is high.
When the needle of the tachometer is in the red zone (the range which exceeds the
allowable revs of the engine).
In the following situations, the gear will not shift even if the shift lever or paddle shift switches
are operated.
“1st Gear not available due to slippery road surface” is displayed on the multi informa-
tion display.
The vehicle speed is low (upshift only).
