Driving
the button is pressed.

To drive using temporary shift
range selection, operate the “-”
or “+” paddle shift switch.
When the “-” paddle shift switch
is operated, the shift range
switches to a range that enables
engine braking force that is suit-
able to driving conditions. When
the “+” paddle shift switch is
operated, the shift range
switches to a range that is one
range higher than the current
range.
Changing the shift range allows
restriction of the highest gear,
preventing unnecessary upshift-
ing and enabling the level of
engine braking force to be
selected.
1 Upshifting
2 Downshifting
The selected shift range, from D1 to
D10, will be displayed on the
multi-information display.
■ Gear step functions
● You can choose from 10 levels of
engine braking force.
● A lower gear step will provide
greater engine braking force than
a higher gear step, and the engine
speed will also increase.
■ Deactivation of temporary
10-speed Sport Sequential
Shiftmatic mode (vehicles with
paddle shift switches)
In the following situations, tempo-
rary 10-speed Sport Sequential
Shiftmatic mode will be deactivated:
● When the vehicle is stopped
● If the accelerator pedal is
depressed continuously for more
than a certain amount of time
WARNING
■ To prevent an accident when
releasing the shift lock
Before pressing the shift lock
override button, make sure to set
the parking brake and depress the
brake pedal.
If the accelerator pedal is acci-
dentally depressed instead of the
brake pedal when the shift lock
override button is pressed and the
shift lever is shifted out of P, the
vehicle may suddenly start, possi-
bly leading to an accident result-
ing in death or serious injury.
