●When engine oil temperature is high and engine speed rises clos e
to the red zone.
■ When moving the shift lever out of P
If the shift lever is pushed sideways before the brake pedal is depressed,
shift lever operation may not be possible. Depress the brake pedal before
shifting the shift lever out of P.
■ Downshifting restrictions warning buzzer
If downshifting operations are performed at a vehicle speed by which down-
shifting is not possible (when downshifting will cause the engi ne speed to
enter the red zone), a buzzer will sound to warn the driver that downshifting
cannot be performed.
■ When driving with cruise control activated
Downshifting can be performed even when using cruise control. A fter down-
shifting, the set speed continues. ( P. 181, 183)
■ Sport mode
●In sport mode, lower gears are used and gears change at a highe r
engine speed.
● If sport mode is changed to while the shift lever is in the M p osition, the
“SPORT” indicator will come on but sport mode controls will not be car-
ried out. Shift the shift lever to the D position.
● Sport mode cannot be changed to when driving with cruise contro l acti-
vated.
■ Snow mode
To prevent slipping, 1
st gear cannot be selected when in snow mode.
■ Sport mode and snow mode automatic deactivation

Automatic gear selection when the vehicle is stopped
When the vehicle is idling at high rpm in order to warm up, and the vehicle is
on a slippery road, the transmission may automatically shift to 2
nd gear for
stopping and starting off.
■ Temporary manual mode driving
*1: Vehicles with a monochrome multi-information display
*2: Vehicles with a color multi-information display
Temporary manual mode driving will be deactivated and normal D position
driving will be returned to in the following situations:
● When driving for longer than the set time (the set time differs according
to driving conditions).
● When the vehicle comes to a stop.
● When the accelerator pedal is continually depressed for longer than the
set time.
● When the accelerator pedal is fully, or near-fully, depressed.
Temporary manual mode driving can be
changed to by operating the paddle shift
switches while the shift lever is in the D
position.
When this occurs, the selected gear and
“D” are displayed on the shift position and
shift range indicator.
(When engine speed rises close to the
red zone, upshifting will be automatically
performed.)
