WARNING

Keep your hands on the steering wheel

rim when using fingers or thumbs on

the steering shift switches:

Putting your hands inside the rim of

the steering wheel when using the

steering shift switches is dangerous.

in a collision, your hands could be

impacted causing injury.

NOTE

When driving slowly, the gears may not

shift up.

In manual shift mode, gears do not shift up

automatically. Do not run the engine with

the tachometer needle in the RED ZONE. If

the tachometer needle enters the RED

ZONE, you may feel engine-braking

because the fuel delivery will be stopped to

protect the engine. However, this does not

indicate an abnormality.

l

When depressing the accelerator fully, the

transmission will shift to a lower gear,

depending on vehicle speed.

Manually Shifting down

To shift down to a lower gear, tap the shift

lever forward (

To shift down to a lower gear with the

steering shift switches, press either of the

DOWN switches away from you once

with your thumb.

could cause the tires to skid. This

could lead to loss of vehicle control

and an accident.

the steering shift switches:

Putting your hands inside the rim of
