■S mode
When the shift range is 5 or lower, holding the shift lever toward “+” sets the shift
range to 6.

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.

2-4. Using other driving systems
GX460_OM_OM60J63U_(U)Example of constant speed cruising
When there are no vehicles ahead
The vehicle travels at the speed set by
the driver. The desired vehicle-to-vehi-
cle distance can also be set by operat ing the vehicle-to-vehicle distance con-
trol.
Example of deceleration cruising
When the vehicle ahead is driving slower than the set speed
When a vehicle is detected running ahead of you, the system automatically
decelerates your vehicle. When a grea ter reduction in vehicle speed is nec-
essary, the system applies the brakes. A warning tone warns you when the
system cannot decelerate sufficiently to prevent your vehicle from closing in
on the vehicle ahead.
Example of follow-up cruising
When following a vehicle driving slower than the set speed
The system continues follow-up cruising while adjusting for changes in the
speed of the vehicle ahead in order to maintain the vehicle-to-vehicle dis-
tance set by the driver.
Example of acceleration
When there are no longer any vehicles ahead driving slower than the
set speed
The system accelerates until the set speed is reached. The system then
returns to constant speed cruising.
