Shifting the shift lever
Operate the shift lever gently and ensure correct shifting operation.
Release the shift lever after each shifting operation to allow it return to
the position.
When shifting to the D or R positions, move the shift lever
along the shift gate.
To shift to the N position, slide the shift lever to the left and
hold it. The shift position will change to N.
To shift to the B position, pull the shift lever to the rear along
the shift gate. Shifting to B is only possible when the shift posi-
tion D is selected.
When shifting from P to N, D or R, from D to R, or from R to D, ensure
that the brake pedal is being depressed and that the vehicle is station-
ary.
Hybrid transmission (hybrid model)
Select a shift position appropriate for the driving conditions.

The current shift position is illuminated.
When selecting a shift position, make sure that the shift position has
been changed to the desired position by checking the shift position
indicator provided on the instrument panel.
When a shift position other than D or B is selected, the arrow toward B
disappears from the shift position indicator.
Shift position purpose
*: For good fuel economy and noise reduction, the D position should usually
be used.

Selecting a driving mode
The following modes can be selected to suit driving conditions.
Eco drive mode
Use Eco drive mode to help achieve low fuel consumption during trips that
involve frequent accelerating and braking. The operation of the air condi-
tioning system will be minimized.
Press the “ECO MODE” switch once more to cancel the Eco drive mode.
Eco drive mode will not be canceled until the “ECO MODE” switch is
pressed, even if the power switch is turned off.
Press the “PWR MODE” switch to change the driving mode to power
mode.
Power mode
Use when high levels of response and feeling are desirable, such as when
driving in mountainous regions or when overtaking.
Press the “PWR MODE” switch once more to cancel the power mode.
Turning the power switch off will cancel power mode.
Press the “ECO MODE” switch to change the driving mode to Eco drive
mode.

Driving
Using engine braking
To use engine braking, select the B position.
During high speed driving, you may feel that deceleration by engine braking
is less than that of a conventional vehicle.
Do not continue normal driving with the transmission in B for a long time.
This may cause decreased fuel economy. To prevent this, use D for normal
driving.
Reverse warning buzzer
When shifting into R, a buzzer will sound to inform the driver that the shift
position is in R.
When the accelerator pedal is depressed while the shift position is in N
A buzzer will sound to inform the driver that the shift position is in N.
Eco drive mode
When the accelerator pedal is depressed in Eco drive mode, it may take more
time to accelerate than usual. This is normal operation.
For the shift positions
When the power switch is off, the shift position cannot be changed.
When the power switch is in ON mode (the hybrid system is not operating),
the shift position can only be changed to N. The shift position will be
changed to N even if the shift position is shifted to D or R and held in that
position.
When the “READY” indicator is on, the shift position can be changed from P
to D, N or R.
When the “READY” indicator is flashing, the shift position cannot be
changed from P to another position even if the shift lever is operated.
Wait until the “READY” indicator changes from a flashing to a solid light, and
then operate the shift lever again.
The shift position can only be changed to B directly from D.

3024-2. Driving procedures
UK_AURIS/AURIS_HV_EE (OM12F76E)Alarms
If an attempt is made to change the shift position by moving the shift lever or
by pressing the P position switch in any of the following situations, a buzzer
will sound and the shifting operation will be disabled or the shift position will
automatically change to N. When this happens, select an appropriate shift
position.
Situations where the shifting operation will be disabled:
• When an attempt is made to change the shift position from P to another
position by moving the shift lever without depressing the brake pedal.
• When an attempt is made to change the shift position from P or N to B
by moving the shift lever.
Situations where the shift position will automatically change to N:
• When the P position switch is pressed while the vehicle is running.
*1
• When an attempt is made to select the R position by moving the shift
lever when the vehicle is moving forward.
*2
• When an attempt is made to select the D position by moving the shift
lever when the vehicle is moving in reverse.
*3
• When an attempt is made to change the shift position from R to B by
moving the shift lever.
*1: Shift position may be changed to P when driving at extremely low speeds.
*2: Shift position may be changed to R when driving at low speeds.
*3: Shift position may be changed to D when driving at low speeds.
When driving with cruise control activated (if equipped)
Even if switching the driving mode to power mode with the intent of enabling
engine braking, engine braking will not activate because cruise control will not
be canceled. (P. 332)
Customization
Settings (e. g. Reverse warning buzzer) can be changed.
