2-1. Driving procedures
■Automatic gear selection when the vehicle is stopped
●When the vehicle comes to a stop, the transmission will automatically downshift
to allow you to start off in 1st gear.
●When the vehicle is idling at high rpm in order to warm up, and the vehicle is on
a slippery road, the transmission will automatically shift to 2nd gear for stopping
and starting off.
■If the automatic transmission fluid temperature warning message is displayed
■AI-SHIFT
The AI-SHIFT automatically selects the optimal gear according to driver perfor-
mance and driving conditions.
The AI-SHIFT automatically operates when the shift lever is in the D position. How-
ever, operating the “-” paddle shift switch will restrict the function’s operation. (Shift-
ing the shift lever to the M po sition cancels the function.)
The engine speed may stay high while depressing the accelerator pedal and may
remain high after releasing the accelerator pedal. This dose not indicate a malfunc-
tion.
CAUTION
■When driving on slippery road surfaces
Be careful of downshifting and sudden accele ration, as this could result in the vehi-
cle skidding to the side or spinning.
If the automatic transmission fluid tempera-
ture warning message is displayed while driv-
ing, make sure you return to normal D
position driving and reduce speed by easing
off the accelerator pedal. Stop the vehicle in a
safe place, shift the shift lever to the P position
and let the engine idle until the warning mes-
sage goes out.
When the warning message goes out, the
vehicle can be driven again.
If the warning message does not go out after
waiting a while, have your vehicle inspected
by your Lexus dealer.
