Driving your vehicle
Sports mode
Whether the vehicle is stationary or in
motion, sports mode is selected by push-
ing the shift lever from the D (Drive) posi-
tion into the manual gate. To return to D
(Drive) range operation, push the shift
lever back into the main gate.
In Sports Mode, moving the shift lever
backwards and forwards will allow you to
select the desired range of gears for the
current driving conditions.
+ (Up) : Push the lever forward once toshift up one gear.
- (Down) : Pull the lever backwards once to shift down one gear.
✽✽NOTICE
 Only the six forward gears can be selected. To reverse or park the vehicle,
move the shift lever to the R (Reverse)
or P (Park) position as required.
 Downshifts are made automatically when the vehicle slows down. When
the vehicle stops, 1st gear is automati-
cally selected.
 When the engine rpm approaches the red zone the transaxle will upshift
automatically.
 If the driver presses the lever to + (Up) or - (Down) position, the
transaxle may not make the requested
gear change if the next gear is outside
of the allowable engine rpm range.
The driver must execute upshifts in
accordance with road conditions, tak-
ing care to keep the engine rpms
below the red zone.
 When driving on a slippery road, push the shift lever forward into the + (Up)
position. This causes the transaxle to
shift into the 2nd gear which is better
for smooth driving on a slippery road.
Push the shift lever to the - (Down)
side to shift back to the 1st gear.Shift lock system (if equipped)
For your safety, the automatic transaxle
has a shift lock system which prevents
shifting the transaxle from P (Park) into R
(Reverse) unless the brake pedal isdepressed.
To shift the transaxle from P (Park) into R
(Reverse):
1. Depress and hold the brake pedal.
2. Move the shift lever.
If the brake pedal is repeatedly depressed
and released with the shift lever in the P
(Park) position, a chattering noise near
the shift lever may be heard. This is a nor-mal condition.

WARNING
Always fully depress the brake
pedal before and while shifting out
of the P (Park) position into anoth-
er position to avoid inadvertent
movement of the vehicle which
could injure persons in or around
the car.
