1524-2. Driving procedures
The selected shift range, from D1 to D8,
will be displayed on the meter.
■Automatic deactivation of shift range
selection in the D position
Shift range selection in the D position will
be deactivated in the following situations:
●The “+” paddle shift switch is held down
for a period of time
●When the vehicle comes to a stop
●If the accelerator pedal is depressed for
more than a certain period of time
●When the shift lever is shifted to a posi-
tion other than D
■Downshifting restriction warning
buzzer
To help ensure safety and driving perfor-
mance, downshifting operation may some-
times be restricted. In some circumstances,
downshifting may not be possible even
when the shift lever or paddle shift switch is
operated. (A buzzer will sound twice.)
To enter S mode, shift the shift lever to
S. Shift ranges can be selected by
operating the shift lever or paddle shift
switches, allowing you to drive in the
gear of your choosing. 1
Upshifting
2 Downshifting
The initial shift range in S mode is set
automatically to S4, S5 or S6 accord-
ing to vehicle’s speed. However, the
initial shift range may be set to S3 if AI-
SHIFT has operated while the shift
lever was in the D position. ( P.149)
A lower shift range will provide greater
engine braking forces than a higher
shift range.
■S mode
●When the shift range is S7 or lower, hold-
ing the shift lever toward “+” sets the shift
range to S8.
●To prevent the engine from over-revving,
upshifting may automatically occur.
●To protect the automatic transmission, a
function is adopted that automatically
selects a higher shift range when the fluid
temperature is high.
■Downshifting restriction warning
buzzer
To help ensure safety and driving perfor-
mance, downshifting operation may some-
times be restricted. In some circumstances,
downshifting may not be possible even
when the shift lever or paddle shift switch is
operated. (A buzzer will sound twice.)
