accidental gear shifting.
NOTE
Please read the following points care-
fully and bear them in mind when using
the manual mode.
. If you attempt to shift down when the
engine speed is too high, i.e., when a
downshift would push the tachometer
needle beyond the red zone, beeps will
be emitted to warn you that the down-
shift is not possible.
In manual mode, the gear position
automatically shifts up when the en-
gine speed approaches the red zone of
the tachometer (except when using the
Sport Sharp (S#) mode (SI-DRIVE mod-
els) or in the Sport+ mode (Drive Mode
Select models)).
. If you attempt to shift up when the
vehicle speed is too low, the transmis-
sion will not respond.
. You can perform a skip-shift (for
example, from 4th to 2nd) by operating
the shift paddle twice in rapid succes-
sion.
. The transmission automatically se-
lects 1st gear when the vehicle stops
moving.
. If the temperature of the transmis-
sion fluid becomes too high, the “AT
OIL TEMP” warning light will illuminate.
Immediately stop the vehicle in a safe
place and let the engine idle until the
warning light turns off.
For models with SI-DRIVE, by selecting
the Sport Sharp (S#) mode, upshifting
will not occur automatically. According
to the road conditions, perform the shift
change manually so that the tach-
ometer needle does not enter the red
zone. Also, if the engine revolutions
reach the specified number, the fuel
supply will be cut. In this case, perform
shift up operation.
For models with Drive Mode Select, by
selecting the Sport+ mode, upshifting
will not occur automatically. According
to the road conditions, perform the shift
change manually so that the tach-
ometer needle does not enter the red
zone. Also, if the engine revolutions
reach the specified number, the fuel
supply will be cut. In this case, perform
shift up operation.
& Driving Tips
s07bg05
NOTE
If the accelerator and brake pedals are
depressed at the same time, driving
torque may be restrained. This is not a
malfunction.
. On a road surface where there is a risk
of wheelspin (for example, a snow- or
gravel-covered road), you can pull away
from a standstill safely and easily by first
selecting the 2nd gear of the manual
mode.
. Always apply the foot or parking brake
when the vehicle is stopped in the “D” or
“R” position.
. Make sure to apply the parking brake
when parking your vehicle. Do not hold the
vehicle with only the transmission.
. Do not keep the vehicle in a stationary
position on an uphill grade by using the “D”
position. Use the brake instead.
. The engine may, on rare occasions,
knock when the vehicle rapidly acceler-
ates or rapidly pulls away from a standstill.
This phenomenon does not indicate a
malfunction.
