ENGINE (IGNITION) SWITCH, TRANSMISSION AND PARKING BRAKE139
The multi−mode manual transmission is a
5−speed forward/reverse transmission.
With the basic features of the convention-
al manual transmission, the clutch opera-
tion and the transmission gear shift are
controlled electronically in the multi−mode
manual transmission.
The features are as follows:
DAny one of the driving modes, Easy
(E) mode or Manual (M) mode, can be
selected. Since this vehicle controls the
clutch operation in either mode, you do
not need to operate it by yourself.
DIn Easy (E) mode, the vehicle selects
the most appropriate gear position in
accordance with an accelerator pedal
operation and a vehicle speed varia-
tion. See “—Easy (E) mode” on page
141.
DIn Manual (M) mode, by controlling the
clutch operation and transmission gear
shift electronically, the gear position
can be shifted by operation of the shift
lever only. See “—Manual (M) mode”
on page 146.
DWhen starting the engine, always place
the shift lever in the “N” position and
hold down the brake pedal firmly. The
engine cannot be started unless the
shift lever is in the “N” position and
the brake pedal is held down.
DThis vehicle has a starting assist sys-
tem that helps the vehicle to start
smoothly by engaging the clutch. When
the shift lever is in position “M”, “E” or
“R”, the vehicle starts slowly without
depressing the accelerator pedal. The
assisting system is disabled if the
brake pedal is depressed or the park-
ing brake is applied.
DWhen stopping the vehicle, the gear
will be shifted to 1st after the vehicle
speed is reduced to a certain speed.

—Easy (E) mode
MS16006a
When Easy (E) mode is being activated,
the most appropriate gear position is auto-
matically selected upon an operation of
the accelerator pedal and a variation of
the vehicle speed.
(a) Normal driving
1. Start the engine as instructed in “How
to start the engine” on page 210 in
Section 3.
2. With your foot holding down the brake
pedal, shift the shift lever to the “E”
position properly. When the shift lever
is shifted to “E” position, the gear will
beshiftedto1st.
If the gear cannot be engaged to 1st
when the shift lever is shifted from the
“N” to “E” position, the “N” indicator
will blink and a warning buzzer (long
pulse sound) will sound. At this time,
the system will re−try shifting automati-
cally, or the driver can shift the shift
lever to the “N” position once, then
shift to the “E” position again.
DThe system will re−try shifting automat-
ically. This will take some time, noise
may be heard from the gears, and shift
shock may occur. However, they do not
indicate malfunction.
3. Release the parking brake and brake
pedal.
4. Depress the accelerator pedal slowly.In case the transmission cannot be en-
gaged to a certain gear position during
shifting due to mechanical malfunction, the
gear will not be engaged and remains in
neutral. The “N” in the gear position indi-
cator will blink and a warning buzzer (long
pulse sound) will sound until the driver
shifts the shift lever to “N” position.
Unless the system recovers from the
above−mentioned condition (mechanical
malfunction), the gear will still remain in
neutral position even shifting the shift le-
ver to “E” or “M” position after the system
performs a re−try shifting. Contact any
authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped pro-
fessional, as soon as possible to service
the vehicle.
When the gear jumped out of position
while driving, the gear is shifted to proper
gear position.
CAUTION
DDuring driving the vehicle, do not
shift the shift lever to “N”. The en-
gine brake may not work and you
may get involved in an unexpected
accident. If you return the shift le-
ver from “N” to “E” because of an
unintended shifting, the gear posi-
tion will be changed accordingly to
the current vehicle speed.
DDo not apply the parking brake
while driving. Otherwise, it could
cause a skid and you may get in-
volved in an unexpected accident.
DAlways keep your foot on the brake
pedal while stopped with the engine
running. This operation prevents the
vehicle starting by an unintended
activation of the starting assist sys-
tem.
