When driving
L/C200_U (OM60D97U)
Automatic transmission
Select a shift position appropriate for the driving conditions.
■Shifting the shift lever
While the “ENGINE START STOP” switch is in IGNITION
ON mode, depress the brake pedal and move the shift
lever.

160 2-1. Driving procedures
L/C200_U (OM60D97U)
■“S” mode
When the shift range is “5” or lower, holding the shift lever toward “+” sets
the shift range to “6”.
■ Downshifting restrictions warning buzzer (in the “S” mode)
To help ensure safety and driving performance, downshifting operation may
sometimes be restricted. In some circumstances, downshifting may not be
possible even when the shift lever is operated. (The warning buzzer will
sound twice.)
■ When driving with the cruise control system
The engine brake will not operate in t he “S” mode, even when downshifting
to “5” or “4”. ( P. 188)
■ Second start mode au tomatic deactivation
Second start mode is automatically deactivated if the engine is turned off
after driving in second start mode.
■ If the shift lever cannot be shifted from “P”
P. 4 9 1
■If the “S” indicator does not come on even after shifting the shift lever
to “S”
This may indicate a malfunction in the automatic transmission system. Have
the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer immediately.
(In this situation, the vehicle will operate as if the shift lever is in “D”.)
■ AI-SHIFT
The AI-SHIFT automatically shifts the gear to the optimal position according
to the driver performance and driving conditions.
The AI-SHIFT automatically operates when the shift lever is in the “D” posi-
tion. (Shifting the shift lever to the “S” position cancels the function.)

Crawl Control indicator will turn off:
● When the shift lever is moved to “P”.
● When the four-wheel drive control switch is in “H4”.
In the following situations, it is possible to descend a slope at a fixed low
speed, however when traveling the system is canceled automatically, and
the crawl indicator will turn off.
● When the shift lever is moved to “N”.
● When the vehicle speed exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
● When the brake pedal is depressed firmly.
● When the parking brake is engaged.

Stop the vehicle in a safe place. (There is no problem with continuing normal
driving.)

sage will be displayed to alert the driver. Stop the vehicle in a safe place until

NOTICE
■To prevent the water damage
Take all necessary safety measures to ensure that water damage to the
engine or other components does not occur.
● Water entering the engine air intake will cause severe engine damage.
● Water entering the automatic transmission will cause deterioration in shift
quality, locking up of your transmission accompanied by vibration, and ulti-
mately damage.
● Water can wash the grease from wheel bearings, causing rusting and pre-
mature failure, and may also enter the differentials, transmission and
transfer case, reducing the gear oil’s lubricating qualities.
■ When you drive through water
If driving through water, such as when crossing shallow streams, first check
the depth of the water and the bottom of the river bed for firmness. Drive
slowly and avoid deep water.
■ Inspection after off-road driving
● Sand and mud that has accumulate d in brake drums and around brake
discs may affect braking efficiency and may damage brake system compo-
nents.
● Always perform a maintenance inspection after each day of off-road driv-
ing that has taken you through rough terrain, sand, mud, or water. For
scheduled maintenance information, refer to the “Scheduled Maintenance
Guide” or “Owner’s Manual Supplement”.
