MS16005a
The multi−mode manual transmission has
a shift lock system. This is the system to
lock the shift lever in order to hold the
actual transmission gear position consis-
tent with the shift lever when the engine
switch is turned to “ACC” or “LOCK” posi-
tion.
Although the shift locksystem is being
activated, shifting the shift lever from “E”
to “M” (or from “M” to “E”) is allowed.
When the engine switch is “ON” and the
vehicle speed is slower than 9 km/h (5
mph), if the shift lever is in “N” position
and the brake pedal is released for
approximately 2 seconds, the shift lever
will be locked.
When releasing the shift lock, depress the
brake pedal without holding the shift lever.
By this operation, the shift lock will be
unlocked and it enables the driver to
change the gear position using the shift
lever.
