Shift lever
Operate the shift lever gently and
securely in the direction of the arrow
on the shift position indicator.
To shift to N, slide the shift lever in the
direction of the arrow and hold it.
Release the shift lever after each shift-
ing operation to allow it to return to its
regular position ( ).
Shifting to M is only possible when the
shift position is in D.
When shifting from P to N, D or R,
from N, D, M or R to P, from D or M to
R, or from R to D, ensure that the brake
pedal is being depressed and the vehi-
cle is stationary.

To enter M mode, shift the shift position to M. Gears can be selected by operating the pad-
dle shift switches, allowing you to drive in the gear of your choosing.
1Upshifting
2Downshifting
The gear changes once every time the pad-
dle shift switch is operated.
The selected gear, from M1 to M10, will be
fixed and displayed in the meter.
Selecting gears in the M position
When in the M position, the gear will not chan ge unless the paddle shift switches are oper-
ated.
However, even when in the M position, the ge ars will be automatically changed in the fol-
lowing situation:
● 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.
Also, the gear will not shift when the vehicle speed is low, even if an upshift operation is per-
formed.
