■Automatic gear selection when the vehicle is stopped
When the vehicle is idling at high rpm in order to warm up, and the vehicle is
on a slippery road, the transmission may automatically shift to 2nd
gear for
stopping and starting off.
■Temporary manual mode driving

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
levers while the select lever is in the D
position.
When this occurs, the selected gear and
“D” are displayed on the shift position and
shift range indicator.
(When engine speed rises close to the
