Upshifting
N00512900131
For the best fuel economy and performance in using your man-
ual transaxle, upshift as listed below.
At low altitude locations, shift at the vehicle speeds listed.
Upshifting earlier during cruise conditions (relatively steady
speeds) will improve your fuel economy.
At high altitude locations, upshift as listed below.
Downshifting
N00513000096
It is recommended that you downshift to a lower gear when
needed to maintain the desired speed, according to the table.
Avoid downshifting at too high a speed. The engine may suffer
damage.
To maintain a safe speed and prolong brake life, shift down to
2nd or 1st when descending a steep hill.
Downshifting is also important to avoid “lugging” the engine
at too low a speed, such as when turning a corner or when driv-
ing up a steep hill.Recommended downshifting speed

Cruise control
(if so equipped)
N00518300544
Cruise control is an automatic speed control system that keeps
a set speed. It can be activated at speeds from about 25 mph
(40 km/h). Cruise control does not work at speeds below about
25 mph (40 km/h).NOTE

Cruise control may not be able to keep your speed on
uphills or downhills.

Your speed may decrease on a steep uphill. You may use
the accelerator pedal if you want to stay at your set speed.

Your speed may increase to more than the set speed on a
steep downhill. You have to use the brake to control your
speed. As a result, the set speed driving is deactivated.
Cruise control switches
CAUTION
!
When you do not wish to drive at a set speed, turn
off the cruise control for safety.
Do not use cruise control when driving conditions
will not allow you to stay at the same speed, such as
in heavy traffic or on roads that are winding, icy,
snow-covered, wet, slippery, on a steep downhill
slope.
On vehicles equipped with manual transaxle, do not
move the gearshift lever to the “N” (Neutral) posi-
tion while driving at a set speed without depressing
the clutch pedal. The engine will run too fast and
might be damaged.

On vehicles equipped with continuously variable
transmission (CVT), although the set speed driving
will be deactivated when shifting to the “N” (NEU-
TRAL) position, never move the selector lever to the
“N” (NEUTRAL) position while driving.
You would have no engine braking and could cause
a serious accident.
