When driving
LX570_OM_OM60L21U_(U) ■ Shift ranges and their functions
● Automatically selecting gears betw een 1 and 6 according to vehicle
speed and driving conditions. But, the gear is limited according to
selected shift range.
● You can choose from 6 levels of engine braking force.
● A lower shift range will provide gr eater engine braking force than a
higher shift range, and the engine revolutions will also increase. ■
Paddle shift switches (if equipped) ●
When the “-” paddle shift switch is operat ed in the “D” position, a shift range will
be automatically selected. Th e highest gear of the first shift range will be one
gear lower than the gear in use during normal “D” position driving. ●
Automatic deactivation of shift range selection in the “D” position
Shift range selection in the “D” position will be deactivated in the following situa-
tions:
• When the vehicle comes to a stop
• If the accelerator pedal is depressed for longer than a certain period of time
in one shift range■
“S” mode ●
When the shift range is “5” or lower, holding the shift lever toward “+” sets the
shift range to “6”. ●
To prevent excessive engine speed, a function was adopted that automatically
selects a higher shift range before the engine speed becomes too high.●
To protect the automatic transmission, a function is adopted that automatically
selects a higher shift range when the fluid temperature is high.■
Downshifting restrictions 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 a paddle shift swit ch (if equipped) is op erated. (The warning
buzzer will sound twice.)
