NOTE
After manual shifting is selected using the sportronic steering wheel shifters, shifting up and down can also be performed using the gearshift lever.
Returning to “D” range operation
NOTE
If manual shifting is selected using the spor- tronic steering wheel shifters when the gear- shift lever is in the “D” (DRIVE) position,the transmission will automatically return to “D” range operation before the vehicle stops.
ç
When the transmission returns to “D” range operation from manual shifting, it may auto- matically shift up or down from the gear selected using manual shifting depending on the vehicle speed or driving conditions. If manual shifting is selected using the spor- tronic steering wheel shifters, “D” rangeoperation will again be selected by moving the gearshift lever from the “D” (DRIVE) position toward the driver’s seat, then returnit toward the front passenger’s seat.

Operation of the Twin Clutch SST
CAUTION Before selecting a position with the engine running and the vehicle stationary, fullydepress the brake pedal to prevent the vehi- cle from creeping. Do not release the brakes until you are readyto drive away. The vehicle will begin to move as soon as the Twin Clutch SST is engaged. Depress the brake pedal with the right foot. Using the left foot could cause driver move-ment delay in case of an emergency. To prevent sudden acceleration, never run the engine at high rpms when shifting from the “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL) posi- tion. Operating the accelerator pedal while the other foot is resting on the brake pedal willaffect braking efficiency, may cause prema- ture wear of brake pads and may cause engine damage. Use the gearshift lever in the correct shift position in accordance with driving condi- tions. Never coast downhill backward in the driv-ing shift position { “D” (DRIVE) or manual shifting} or coast forward in the “R” (REVERSE) position.Engine stopping and increased brake pedal and steering effort could lead to an accident.

To gain extra acceleration in “D” (DRIVE) position (when passing another vehicle) pushthe accelerator to the floor
if it is safe to do so
in traffic conditions. The Twin Clutch SST will automatically downshift.
N00541600039
The Twin Clutch SST may not upshift to a higher shift position if the computer deter- mines the current speed
cannot be maintained
once a higher shift position is engaged. For smoother vehicle performance, if you release the throttle while climbing a steep grade, the Twin Clutch SST may not upshift.This is normal, as the
computer is temporarily
preventing shifting. After reaching the top of the hill, normal shift function will resume.
When traveling down steep grades, the com- puter may automatically select a lower shift position. This function assists engine brakingefforts, reducing the need for using the ser- vice brakes.
N00541000033
For short waiting periods, such as at trafficlights, the vehicle can be left in gearshift
Do not rev the engine with the brake pedal pressed when the vehicle is stationary. This can cause sudden acceleration and dam- age the Twin Clutch SST. Also, when you depress the accelerator pedalwhile holding down the brake pedal with the gearshift lever in th
e “D” (DRIVE) position,
the engine revolutions may not rise as highas when performing the same operation with the gearshift lever in the “N” (NEUTRAL) position.
Passing acceleration
NOTE
In manual shift, downshifts do not take place when the accelerator is depressed all the way to the floor.CAUTION
Uphill/downhill driving
DRIVING UPHILL
CAUTION Do not use the tendency of the vehicle to creep forward in order to drive at low speedsup hills. The transmission may be damaged and an accident may occur due to the following con-ditions.• The Twin Clutch SST fluid temperaturewill rise and can cause transmission dam- age.
• If the vehicle is continuously driven at lowspeeds using the tendency of the vehicle to creep forward, the vehicle will vibrate or the warning display will appear on the information screen in the multi-information display to alert the driver that the Twin Clutch SST fluid temperature has risen.After that, if the Twin Clutch SST fluid temperature rises even higher, the transmis- sion protection control will operate.If this occurs, the vehicle may suddenly reverse as if the gearshift lever was in the “N” (NEUTRAL) position and cause an accident. If the warning display appears or the transmission protection control operates, refer to “When warning display is showing” on page 5-74.

If there is a malfunction in the Twin Clutch SST or engine electronic control module, the following may occur. Twin Clutch SST does not shift. Vehicle cannot move. Twin Clutch SST acceleration is slow. Vehicle does not creep. “Shift shock” is large. Shifting occurs at higher engine speed. Response is slow.
If any of these occurs, perform the following procedure. The temperature of Twin
Clutch SST fluid is
high. Refer to “Warning display” on page 5-73 and follow the appropriate measures. There could be a malfunction in the engine electronic control module.
CAUTION Do not rev the engine unnecessarily while the vehicle is stationary. Unexpected acceler- ation may occur if the gearshift lever is in aposition other than “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL). Do not keep the vehicle in a stopped position on an uphill slope by depressing the acceler- ator pedal instead of the brake pedal.The transmission may be damaged and an accident may occur due to the following con- ditions.• The Twin Clutch SST fluid temperaturewill rise and can cause transmission dam- age.
• If the vehicle is kept in a stopped positionby depressing the accelerator pedal instead of the brake pedal, the vehicle will vibrate or the warning display will appear on the information screen in the multi-infor- mation display to alert the driver that the Twin Clutch SST fluid temperature hasrisen. After that, if the Twin Clutch SST fluid temperature rises even higher, the transmis-sion protection control will operate. If this occurs, the vehicle may suddenly reverse as if the gearshift lever was in the “N” (NEUTRAL) position and cause an accident. If the warning display appears or the transmission protection control operates, refer to “When warning display is showing” on page 5-74.

When parking on a hill, set the parking brake, and turn the front wheels toward the curb on a downhill, or away from the curb on an uphill.If necessary, apply chocks to wheels. Place the gearshift lever into the “R” (Reverse) position when parking on a down-hill slope, into the 1s
t position when parking
on an uphill slope.
Be sure that the parking brake is firmly set when parked and that the selector lever (CVT) or gearshift lever (Twin Clutch SST) is in the “P” (PARK) position.When parking on a hill, it is important to set the parking brake before moving the selector lever (CVT) or gearshift lever (Twin ClutchSST) to the “P” (PARK) position. This pre-vents loading the parking brake against the transaxle gear. When this happens, it is diffi- cult to move the selector lever (CVT) or gear-shift lever (Twin Clutch SST) out of the “P” (PARK) position. Never leave the engi
ne running while you
take a short sleep/rest. Also, never leave theengine running in a closed or poorly venti- lated place.
Your front bumper can be damaged if you scrape it over curbs or parking stop blocks.Be careful when traveling up or down steep slopes where your bumper can scrape the road. When leaving the vehicle unattended, always carry the key and lock all doors.Always try to park your vehicle in a well lit area.
