Automatic transmission
Select a shift position appropriate for the driving conditions.
■Shifting the shift lever
While the “ENGINE START STOP” switch is in IGNITION
ON mode, depress the brake pedal and move the shift
lever.
■ Shift position uses
*1: Shifting to the “D” position allows the system to select a gear suitable
for the driving conditions. Setting the shift lever to the “D” position is
recommended for normal driving.
*2: Selecting shift ranges using “S” mode restricts the upper limit of thepossible gear ranges, controls engine braking forces, and prevents
unnecessary upshifting.

■Selecting a driving mode
The following patterns can be selected to suit current driving and
operating conditions.
Power mode
For powerful acceleration and
driving in mountainous
regions.
Normal mode
For normal driving.
Second start mode
For starting on slippery road
surfaces, such as on snow.

Changing shift ranges in “S” mode
Shift the shift lever to the “S” position and operate the shift lever. Upshifting
Downshifting
The initial shift range in “S” mode is automatically set to “5” or “4”
according to the vehicle’s speed. However, the initial shift range may
be set to “3” or “2” if the AI-SHIFT has operated while the shift lever
was in the “D” position. ( P. 175)

Shift ranges and their functions
●Automatically selecting gears between 1 and 6 according to
vehicle speed and driving conditi ons. But, the gear is limited
according to selected shift range.
● You can choose from 6 levels of engine braking force.
● A lower shift range will provide greater engine br aking force than
a higher shift range, and the engine revolutions will also
increase.
■ “S” mode
●When the shift range is “5” or lower, holding the shift lever toward “+” sets
the shift range to “6”.
● To prevent excessive engine speed, a function was adopted that auto-
matically selects a higher shift range before the engine speed becomes
too high.
● To protect the automatic transmission, a function is adopted that auto-
matically selects a higher shift range when the fluid temperature is high.
■ Downshifting restrictions wa rning buzzer (in the “S” mode)
To help ensure safety and driving performance, downshifting operation may
sometimes be restricted. In some circumstances, downshifting may not be
possible even when the shift lever is operated. (The warning buzzer will
sound twice.)
■ When driving with the cruise control or radar cruise control activated
Even when performing the following actions with the intent of enabling
engine braking, engine braking will not activate because cruise control or
radar cruise control will not be canceled.
●While driving in “S” mode, downshifting to “5” or “4”. ( P. 210, 214)
● When switching the driving mode to power mode while driving in “D”
position. ( P. 172)

■
Second start mode au tomatic deactivation
Second start mode is automatically deactivated if the engine is turned off
after driving in second start mode.
■ If the shift lever cannot be shifted from “P”
P. 6 5 1
■If the “S” indicator does not come on even after shifting the shift lever
to “S”
This may indicate a malfunction in the automatic transmission system. Have
the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer immediately.
(In this situation, the vehicle will operate as if the shift lever is in “D”.)
■ AI-SHIFT
The AI-SHIFT automatically shifts the gear to the suitable position according
to the driver performance and driving conditions.
The AI-SHIFT automatically operates when the shift lever is in the “D” posi-
tion. (Shifting the shift lever to the “S” position cancels the function.)
