Advanced automobile manufacturing tech- niques permit you to operate your new vehi-cle without requiring a long break-in period of low-speed driving. However, you can add to the future perfor-mance and economy of your vehicle by observing the following precautions during the first 300 miles (500 km).Drive your vehicle at moderate speeds duringthe break-in period.  Avoid revving the engine. For vehicles equipped with turbocharger, do not exceed 5,000 rpm for the first 600 miles(1,000 km).  Avoid rough driving such as fast starts, sudden acceleration, prolonged high-speed driving and sudden braking. These would have a detrimental effect on the engine and also cause increased fuel andoil consumption, which could result in malfunction of the engine components. Be particularly careful to avoid full accelera-tion while in low gear.  Do not overload the vehicle. Observe the seating capacity (See “Cargo load precau-tions” on page 6-10).  Do not use this vehicle for trailer towing.

At this position, the transmission is disen- gaged. It is the same as the neutral position ona manual transaxle and should be used when the vehicle is not moving for an extended length of time during driving, such as in atraffic jam. This position is used for most city and high- way driving. The trans
mission will automati-
cally and continuously change its gear ratio depending on road and driving conditions.
This position is for driving up very steep hills and for engine braki
ng at low speeds when
driving down steep hills.

Whether the vehicle is stationary or in motion, sports mode is selected by pushing
the selector lever from the “D” (DRIVE) position into the manual gate (1). To return to “D” (DRIVE) operation, push the selector lever back into the main gate (2).In sports mode, rapid
shifting is possible sim-
ply by operating the selector lever or spor- tronic steering wheel paddle shifter.Unlike the manual transaxle, sports mode allows shifting with the accelerator pedal depressed.
“N” NEUTRAL

WA R N I N G Never move the selector lever to the “N” (NEUTRAL) position while driving since you could accidentally slip it into the “P”(PARK) or “R”(REVERSE) position, damaging the transmission. To prevent the vehicle from rolling when stopped on a slope, the engine should be started in the “P” (PARK) position, not in“N” (NEUTRAL) position. To prevent rolling, always keep your foot on the brake pedal when the vehicle is in “N” (NEUTRAL) position, or when shift- ing into or out of “N” (NEUTRAL) posi-tion.
“D” DRIVE

CAUTION To prevent transmission damage, never shift into the “D” (DRIVE) position from the “R” (REVERSE) position while
the vehicle is in
motion.
“L” LOW (except for vehicles with manual gate)

WA R N I N G This position can be used for maximum engine braking.Be very careful not to shift into “L” (LOW) suddenly. Sudden engine braking may cause the tires to skid.Select this position according to the road conditions and vehicle speed.

While driving with the selector lever in the “D” (DRIVE), sports mode can be selectedby pulling one of the sportronic steering wheel shifters toward you. In sports mode, rapid sh
ifting is possible sim-
ply by operating the sportronic steering wheel paddle shifter. Unlike the manual transaxle, sports modeallows shifting with the accelerator pedal depressed.
+ (SHIFT UP) Transmission shifts up once by each opera- tion. - (SHIFT DOWN) Transmission shifts down once by each operation.
CAUTION Upward shifts do not take place automati- cally in sports mode. The driver must make upward shifts in accordance with prevailingroad conditions, making sure the engine rpm remains below the red zone on the tachome- ter.
SHIFT UP
SHIFT DOWN
SHIFT DOWN
SHIFT UP
 By rapidly moving the selector lever or spor- tronic steering wheel paddle shifter to the “- (SHIFT DOWN)” side twice, it is possible to skip one shift range (i.e., 3rd to 1st or 4th to 2nd). Since sudden engine braking or accel-eration can cause a loss of traction, down- shifts must be made carefully in accordance with the vehicle’s speed. On vehicles with a sportronic steering wheel paddle shifter, shift ranges may not changewhen the lateral paddle shifters are operated at the same time.NOTE
 Shift ranges can only be selected in a for- ward direction from 1st to 6th. To reverse orpark the vehicle, move the selector lever to the “R” (REVERSE) or “P” (PARK) posi- tion.  To maintain good running performance, the transmission may refuse to perform anupshift when the selector lever or sportronic steering wheel paddle shifter is moved to the “+(SHIFT UP)” position at certain vehicle speeds. Also, to prevent over-revving of the engine, the transmission may refuse to per-form a downshift when the shift lever or sportronic steering wheel paddle shifter is moved to the “-(SHIFT DOWN)” position atcertain vehicle speeds. When this happens, a buzzer sounds to indicate that a downshift is not going to take place.CAUTION
 Move the selector lever gently between the manual and main gates and between posi- tions in the manual gate. And do not operate sportronic steering wheel paddle shifter vio- lently. Excessive force could damage theselector lever or sportronic steering wheel paddle shifter.
Except for vehicles with manual gate
NOTE
 To return to “D” (DRIVE) operation, pull the sportronic steering wheel paddle shifter on the +(UP) side for longer than 2 seconds, or park the vehicle to change the selector leverposition indicator to “D” (DRIVE) and return to “D” (DRIVE) operation.NOTE
