Basic Operation
Selecting a AT/MT Mode
Your Honda SXS has 2 transmission modes: AT mode and MT mode.
AT mode:
This mode automatically shifts the gears with optimal timing
according to your driving conditions.
You can temporarily shift up or down by operating the shift paddles
while driving in AT mode. At the same time, the shifted gear is
shown on the gear position display.
MT mode:
In this mode, the gears are shifted manually through shift paddle
operation.
• Clasping the shift paddle does not continuously shift the gears.
To continue shifting, release your fingers from the shift paddle,
and then clasp the shift paddle again.
• The gears do not shift up automatically in MT mode. Do not allow
the engine to exceed the rev limit.
• The gears shift down automatically when you slow down, even in
MT mode.
• You will start from the 1st gear when MT mode is selected.
For details on shift paddle operation in MT mode, see page 98.
When using the AT/MT switch to switch between AT mode and MT
mode, be sure the shift select lever is in the high-range (H) or low-
range (L) position.
