While Operating
Electronic Parking Brake
To apply, push the brake pedal and press the parking brake switch
firmly. The brake system warning light on the instrument panel and the
indicator light on the parking brake switch will illuminate.
To release, make sure all doors are closed and your seatbelt is fastened,
then gently push the accelerator pedal. Or, while the ignition switch is in
the ON position and the brake pedal and the clutch pedal (MT models
only) are pushed in, pull the parking brake switch toward you.
Hill Holder™ Function
When the Hill Holder function is activated, the parking brake will be
automatically applied when stopped on an uphill or downhill slope with
the brake pedal pushed down. The brake system warning light and the
indicator light on the parking brake switch will illuminate. To activate,
press the Hill Holder switch. To deactivate, press the Hill Holder
switch again.
Automatic Transmission
Shift Mode
The 5-Speed automatic transmission or the
Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) gives
you ultimate control with two different driving
modes: Normal Mode and Manual Mode.
Normal Mode
When the selector lever is in the “D” (Drive)
position, the transmission is in Normal
shift mode. The shift position indicator on
the instrument panel shows “D” and the
transmission automatically shifts into a
suitable forward gear.
Manual Mode
In Manual Mode, you select the desired gear
position to obtain necessary acceleration and engine braking. Moving the selector
lever left into the manual gate
1 from “D”
(Drive) position causes the transmission
to change into Manual Mode. To shift, use
the paddle shift control switches. The shift
position indicator shows the selected
gear position.
