NOTE
Please read the following points carefully and bear
them in mind when using the manual mode.
" Automatic gearshifts do not take place in the
manual mode. Perform gearshifts in accordance
with road conditions so that the tachometer nee-
dle does not enter the red zone. If the engine
speed reaches a predetermined level, a fuel-cut
function will operate. Shift up if this happens.
" 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.
" 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 selector lever twice in
rapid succession.
" The transmission automatically selects 1st gear
when the vehicle stops moving.
" If the temperature of the automatic transmission
fluid becomes too high, the “AT OIL TEMP” warn-
ing light will come on and upshifts to 4th gear will
not be possible. Immediately stop the vehicle in a
safe place and let the engine idle until the warning
light goes off.
