4-2. Driving procedures
The iMT optimally controls the
engine speed to suit the driver’s
operation of the clutch pedal and
shift lever, helping the driver to shift
gears more smoothly. Additionally,
when the clutch pedal is operated,
the iMT helps reduce shift shock,
allowing for lighter shift operations
when driving on a winding road or
incline.
Press the “iMT” switch.
The iMT indicator will illuminate in
green.
Press the switch again to cancel iMT.
■The iMT may not operate when
In the following situations, iMT may not operate. However, this does not indicate
a malfunction.
●The clutch pedal is not fully depressed
●The clutch pedal is not fully released,
such as if a foot is resting on the
clutch pedal*
●Shift operation is performed after the
vehicle has been coasting with the shift lever in N
●The shift lever is not operated for a long time after the clutch pedal is depressed*: After the shift lever is moved, unless
your foot is completely removed from
the clutch pedal, the iMT may not
operate and the engine speed may
not be controlled optimally for the next
gear change.
To enable the iMT, release the clutch
pedal completely and then depress it
NOTICE
■To prevent damage to the vehicle
When shifting gears, observe the fol-
lowing precautions. Failure to do so may cause damage to the engine, manual transmission, and/or clutch.
●Do not shift the shift lever to R with-out depressing the clutch pedal.
●Do not lift up the ring section except when shifting the lever to R.
●Shift the shift lever to R only when the vehicle is stationary.
