(2) Gear position The information display shows the manual
mode indicator (1) and the current gear
position (2).
NOTE:
• The indicated gear position on the infor-
mation display when you shift from “D” to
“M” is the gear position that was
selected automatically when the gear-
shift lever was in “D”.
• You can change to the manual mode temporarily by pulling the shift paddle on
the steering wheel toward you when the
gearshift lever is in “D”.
Shifting in the manual mode
You can shift gears from 1st to 7th depend-
ing on driving speed.
NOTE:
• When the engine is revved, the gear is shifted up automatically to prevent dam-
age to the engine and the transaxle.
• When the driving speed becomes slow, the gear shifts down automatically, and
when the vehicle stops, the gear position
will be in 1st gear without shifting the
gearshift lever.
• If you depress the accelerator pedal a
certain amount, the gear shifts down
automatically even if the gearshift lever
is in the manual mode. NOTE:
When you change gear, sometimes the
transaxle may not shift to the desired gear
but a buzzer sounds instead. This is to
maintain good drivability and to protect the
transaxle.
Using the shift paddle

Vehicles with a CVT have an electrically
operated park-lock feat ure. If the vehicle’s
lead-acid battery is discharged, or there is
some other electrical failure, the CVT can-
not be shifted out of Park in the normal
way. Jump starting may correct the condi-
tion. If not, follow the procedure described
below. This procedure will permit shifting

Parking
Unlike an automatic transaxle, Auto Gear
Shift does not have a parking position.
Park the vehicle with a gear engaged.
1) Apply the parking brake firmly.
2) While depressing the brake pedal, shift
the gearshift lever to the “R” position on
a downhill slope, and to the 1st position
in the drive (D) mode or the “M” position
in the manual (M) mode on an uphill
slope and confirm the gear position by
checking the gear position indicator.
3) Stop the engine.
NOTE:
• After the engine is stopped, the gear in the transaxle does not change even if
you shift the gearshift lever in any posi-
tion. Always shift the gearshift lever
before stop the engine.
• Check the transaxle gear position by looking at the gear position indicator,
then turn the ignition switch to “LOCK”
position or press the engine switch to
change the ignition mode to LOCK
(OFF), to stop the engine. Release the
brake pedal after a few seconds. Parking cancel
Depress the brake pedal, turn the ignition
switch to “ON” position or press the engine
switch to change the ignition mode to ON,
and shift the gearshift lever to the “N” posi-
tion. The gear will be disengaged. Warning functions
A warning buzzer will sound or the indica-
tor will blink under the f
ollowing conditions.
Warning buzzer
• The clutch is heated due to excessive load.
• The creeping function is being activated for a long period of time.
• The ignition switch is turned to the “LOCK” position or the engine switch is
pressed to change the ignition mode to

is running.
WA R N I N G
• If the gear is not engaged properly and completely before the ignition
switch is turned to “LOCK” posi-
tion or the engine switch is pressed
to change the ignition mode to
LOCK (OFF), the vehicle may not
be parked with the gear engaged.
Always confirm the gear position
by checking the gear position indi-
cator when parking.
• On a downhill slope, the gear
should be put in reverse, and in 1st
gear on an uphill slope. Otherwise,
the vehicle may move, and cause
an unexpected accident. If the gear
is left in the “N” position, the vehi-
cle cannot be parked with a gear
engaged.

Dual camera brake support (if equipped)Dual camera brake support is a system
that detects obstacles or partition lines in
front of your vehicle by the stereo camera,
attempts to avoid a crash by giving warn-
ing to the driver, and attempts to reduce
damage in the event of a crash. NOTE:
• While the system is working, if a vehicle
in front of you moves outside of the ste-
reo camera’s detection field or the vehi-
cle can no longer be detected, the
system may stop functioning.
• While the system is working, a braking sound may be heard even if you do not
depress the brake pedal, but this is nor-
mal.
