WARNING
■When driving on slippery road surfaces
Be careful of downshifting and sud-
den acceleration, as this could result in the vehicle skidding to the side or spinning.
NOTICE
■Hybrid battery (traction battery) charge
If the shift lever is in N, the hybrid bat- tery (traction battery) will not be charging, even when the engine is
running. Therefore, if the vehicle is left with the shift lever in N for a long
period of time, the hybrid battery (traction battery) will discharge, and this may result in the vehicle not
being able to start.

3245-2. Driving procedures
enabling the level of engine braking
force to be selected.
1 Upshifting
2 Downshifting
The selected shift range, from D1 to
D6, will be displayed on the multi-infor-
mation display.
■Shift ranges and their functions
●You can choose from 6 levels of accelerating force and engine braking force.
●A lower shift range will provide greater accelerating force and engine braking
force than a higher shift range, and the engine revolutions will also increase.
■Downshifting restriction warning
buzzer
To help ensure safety and driving per- formance, downshifting operation may
sometimes be restricted. In some cir- cumstances, downshifting may not be possible even when the paddle shift
switch is operated. (A buzzer will sound twice.)
■Automatic deactivation of shift
range selection in the D position
Shift range selection in the D position will be deactivated in the following situa-
tions:
●When the vehicle comes to a stop
●If the accelerator pedal is depressed for more than a certain period of time
●When the shift lever is shifted to a
position other than D
●When the “+” paddle shift switch is
held down for a period of time
When the shift lever is in the S posi-
tion, the shift lever or paddle shift
switches (if equipped) can be oper-
ated as follows:

4345-5. Using the driving support systems
1Eco drive mode
Suitable for driving to improve fuel
economy by more smoothly generating
torque in response to accelerator pedal
operations compared to normal mode
and restraining air conditioning system
operations (heating/cooling).
When the switch is turned to the left
while not in Eco drive mode, the system
switches to Eco drive mode and the
Eco drive mode indicator illuminates on
the multi-information display.
2 Normal mode
Suitable for normal driving.
The driving mode returns to normal
mode if the switch is pressed while in
Eco drive mode or sport mode.
3 Sport mode
Controls the steering feeling and hybrid
system to create an acceleration
response that is suitable for sporty driv-
ing. Suitable for when crisp handling is
desired, such as when driving on
mountainous roads.
When the switch is turned to the right
while not in sport mode, the system
switches to sport mode and the sport
mode indicator illuminates on the multi-
information display.
■When changing to a driving mode
other than normal mode
●The background color of the multi-
information display changes accord- ing to the selected driving mode.
●When the speedometer is set to ana-log display, the speedometer display color also changes.
●The color of the switch changes according to the selected driving
mode. (On some models)
■Air conditioning system operation in Eco drive mode
In Eco drive mode, heating/cooling oper-
ations and the fan speed is controlled to improve fuel efficiency. Perform the fol-lowing procedures to increase the air
conditioning performance.
●Adjust the fan speed ( P.453)
●Cancel Eco drive mode
■Canceling a driving mode
●Sport mode is automatically canceled and the driving mode returns to nor-mal mode when the power switch is
turned off.
●Normal mode and Eco drive mode are
