The transmission downshifts to first
gear and returns to drive mode (D)
when the vehicle comes to a
complete stop and the vehicle speed
is about 6 mph (10 km/h).
You cannot downshift with the
paddle shifter before the engine
speed reaches the upper limit of the
lower gear. If you try to do this, the
gear position indicator will flash the
numberofthelowergearseveral
times, then return to a higher gear
position.
Also, you cannot upshift with the
paddle shifter before the engine
speed reaches the lower limit of the
higher gear.
The transmission remains in the
selected gear if you do not accelerate.
The transmission control system
monitors the accelerator pedal use
and your driving conditions. When
you press the accelerator pedal as in
the normal driving, the system
judges that you are driving at a
constant cruising speed without
using the paddle shifters. Under
these conditions, D-paddle shift
mode is cancelled, and the
transmission automatically returns to
drive mode(D).
Each time you pull either paddle
shifter, the transmission shifts one
gear up or down. If you want to shift
up or down more than two gears, pull
the paddle shifter twice, pause, and
then pull it again.
If there is a problem in the
transmission while you are driving
with the paddle shifters, the D
indicator flashes, the D-paddle shift
mode is canceled, and the
transmission returns to drive mode
(D).
