2-1. Driving procedures
GX460_OM_OM60J63U_(U)
■S mode
When the shift range is 5 or lower, holding the shift lever toward “+” sets the shift
range to 6.
■AI-SHIFT
AI-SHIFT automatically selects a suitable gear according to driver performance
and driving conditions.
AI-SHIFT automatically operates when the shift lever is in the D position. (Shifting
the shift lever to the S position cancels the function.)
The engine speed remain high after releasing the accelerator pedal. This does not
indicate a malfunction.
■When driving with the cruise control or dynamic radar cruise control
Engine braking will not occur in S mode, even when downshifting to 5 or 4.
( → P. 2 5 0 , 2 5 4 )
■If the shift lever cannot be shifted from P
→ P. 74 2
■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 Lexus dealer immediately.
(In this situation, the transmission will operate in the same manner as when the shift
lever is in D.)
■Downshift restriction warning buzzer (S mode)
To help ensure safety and driving performance, downshifting operation may some-
times be restricted. In some circumstances, downshifting may not be possible even
when the shift lever is operated. (A buzzer will sound twice.)
