tion and vehicle stabil-
ity by controlling the fr
ont-rear distribution of
driving torque using th
e electronic control
coupling in the rear differential assembly.
Select the drive mode from the following 3 types to suit the driving conditions.
Parking
When the CVT makes no speed change
NOTE
[For vehicles equipped with mono-color liq- uid crystal display meter]When the selector le
ver position indicator
blinks while you are driving, there could be a malfunction in the automatic transmission system or CVT fluid
temperature becomes
abnormally high. [For vehicles equipped with color liquid crystal display meter] When the warning display and “SLOW DOWN” or the wa
rning display and
“SERVICE REQUIRED” appear on the information screen in the multi-informationdisplay, there could be
a malfunction in the
CVT. Refer to “Continuously variable trans- mission (CVT): Warning display” on page5-70.

nostic (OBD) system which monitors the emissions, engine control system or auto- matic transaxle cont
rol system/continuously
variable transmission
(CVT) control system.
If a problem is detected in one of these sys- tems, this indicator illuminates or flashes. When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the operation mode is put inON, this indicator
normally comes on and
goes off after the engine has started. This indicator will come on if the fuel tank filler cap is not properly tightened.
