While the upshift/downshift indicator light is illuminated, gears can be

you to drive in the gear of your choosing. Even if upshifting operations are performed, if vehicle speed is too low for
the requested gear, the gear will not change.

Each time the select lever or
paddle shift levers are operated,
the gear changes up or down
one gear and the selected gear,
“1” through “6”, will be set.
The selected gear, from “1” to “6”,
and “M” will be displayed on the
shift position and shift range indi-
cator.
When in manual mode, the gear will not change unless the select
lever or paddle shift levers are operated.
However, even when in manual mode, the gears will be automatically
changed in the following situations: ● When vehicle speed drops (downshift only).
● When engine oil temperature is high and engine speed rises close
to the red zone.

on a slippery road, the transmission may automatically shift to 2nd
gear for
stopping and starting off.
■Temporary manual mode driving
Temporary manual mode driving will be deactivated and normal D position
driving will be returned to in the following situations:
●When driving for longer than the set time (the set time differs according
to driving conditions).
●When the vehicle comes to a stop.
●When the accelerator pedal is continually depressed for longer than the
set time.
●When the accelerator pedal is fully, or near-fully, depressed. Temporary manual mode driving can be
changed to by operating the paddle shift

position.
When this occurs, the selected gear and
“D” are displayed on the shift position and
shift range indicator.
