tC_OM_OM21046U_(U)
Selecting shift ranges in the D position (vehicles with paddle
shift switches)To drive using temporary shift ra nge selection, operate the “-” paddle
shift switch. The shift range can then be selected by operating the “-”
and “+” paddle shift switches. Changing the shift range allows restric-
tion of the highest gear, preventing unnecessary upshifting and
enabling the level of engine braking force to be selected.
Downshifting
Upshifting
The selected shift range, from 1
to 5, or D will be displayed in the
meter.
To return to normal D position
driving, the “+” paddle shift switch
must be held down for a period of
time.
When a shift range higher than 5
is selected, the shift range will
return to normal D position.
■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 braking force than
a higher shift ran ge, and the engine speed will also increase.
