position, the transmission is in normal shift
mode. The select lever position indicator in the
Combination Meter shows “D” and the
transmission automatically shifts into a
suitable forward gear.
Manual Mode
In manual mode, you select the desired gear
position to obtain necessary acceleration and engine braking. Move the select lever left
from the “D” position into the “M” position to select manual mode. The gear position
indicator in the Combination Meter shows the currently selected gear from “M1” to “M6”.

next lower gear, pull the “–”
paddle on the left toward you.
You can temporarily shift gears
even when the select lever is in

otherwise slippery surface
• Navigating a vehicle stuck in mud or deep snow
