Starting and operating/Continuously variable transmission
Gearshifts can be performed using the
shift paddle behind the steering wheel.
To upshift to the next higher gear position,
pull the shift paddle that has + indicated
on it. To downshift to the next lower gear
position, pull the shift paddle that has
indicated on it.
To deselect the manual mode, return the
select lever to the D position from the M
position.
CAUTION
Do not place or hang anything on
the shift paddles. Doing so may
result in accidental gear shifting.
! Manual mode tips
Please read the following points carefully
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 downshift
is not possible.
. If you attempt to shift up when the
vehicle speed is too low, the transmission
will not respond.
. You can perform a skip-shift (for
example, from 4th to 2nd) by operating
the shift paddle twice in rapid succession.
. The transmission automatically selects
1st gear when the vehicle stops moving.
. If the temperature of the transmission
fluid becomes too high, the AT OIL
TEMP warning light on the combination
meter will illuminate. Immediately stop the
vehicle in a safe location and let the hybrid
system idle until the warning light turns off.
& Shift lock function
The shift lock function helps prevent the
improper operation of the select lever.
. The select lever cannot be operated
unless the ignition switch is turned to the
ON position and the brake pedal is
depressed.
. The select lever cannot be moved from
the P posit ion to any other position
before the brake pedal is depressed.
Depress the brake pedal first, and then
operate the select lever.
. Only the P position allows you to turn
the key from the ACC position to the
LOCK position and remove the key from
the ignition key cylinder (models without
keyless access with push-button start
system).
. Only the P position allows you to turn
the push-button ignition switch to the
OFF position (models with keyless
access with push-button start system).
. If the ignition switch is turned to the
LOCK (off) position while the select lever
is in the N position, the select lever may
not be moved to the P position after a
period of time. Therefore, move the select
lever to the P position with the brake
pedal depressed soon after the ignition
switch is turned to the LOCK (off)
position.
! Shift lock release
If the select lever cannot be operated, turn
the ignition switch back to the ON
position then move the select lever to the
P position with the select lever button
pressed and brake pedal depressed.
