Paddle Shifters*
Use the paddle shifters to change gears without removing your hands from\
the
steering wheel.
*if equipped
When driving in ECON or NORMAL mode: The vehicle goes into manual shift
mode temporarily, and the gear number appears in the shift indicator. When you
start traveling at a constant speed or accelerate, manual shift mode aut\
omatically
switches off, and the gear number goes off.
When driving in SPORT mode: The vehicle goes into manual shift mode, and
the M indicator and gear number appear in the shift indicator. If the vehicle
speed increases and the engine speed approaches the tachometer’s red zone,
the transmission automatically shifts up. As the vehicle speed slows down, the
transmission automatically shifts down accordingly. When the vehicle comes to a
stop, it automatically shifts down into 1st gear.
You can cancel manual shift mode by pressing any of the three driving mod\
e
buttons, or by pulling the (+ paddle shifter for a few seconds.
L mode operation: Use L mode when you want to increase engine braking to
maximum when in manual shift mode, when going up or down hills, or when the
IMA battery is low. Pull and hold both paddle shifters (+) and (-) at the same time.
The L indicator is displayed in the shift indicator. To cancel this mode, pull and
hold both paddle shifters again, or press any of the three driving mode \
buttons.

actually are.
Visually confirm that it is safe to drive before backing up. Certain c\
onditions (such as weather,
lighting, and high temperatures) may also restrict the rear view. Do not rely on the rearview display,

Emergency Engine Stop
The ENGINE START/STOP button may be used to stop the engine due to an
emergency situation even while driving. If you must stop the engine, cho\
ose one of
the following operations:
•
Press and hold the ENGINE ST
ART/STOP button for
two seconds, or
•
Firmly press the ENGINE ST
ART/STOP button two
times.
The steering wheel will not lock. Because turning off the engine also di\
sables the
power assist the engine provides to the steering and braking systems, it\
will require
significantly more physical effort and time to steer and slow the vehi\
cle. Downshift
gears and use both feet on the brake pedal, if necessary, to slow the vehicle and
stop immediately in a safe place.
Do not press the button while driving unless it is absolutely necessary \
for the engine
to be switched off.
Trying to lift or tow your vehicle by the bumpers will cause serious dama\
ge. The
bumpers are not designed to support the vehicle’s weight.
Improper towing such as towing behind a motorhome or other motor vehicle\
can
damage the transmission.
NOTICE
Emergency Towing
Call a professional towing service if you need to tow your vehicle.
Flat bed equipment: The operator loads your vehicle on the back of a tru\
ck. This is
the best way to transport your vehicle.
Wheel lift equipment: The tow truck uses two pivoting arms that go under\
the front
tires and lift them off the ground. The rear tires remain on the ground.\
This is an
acceptable way to tow your vehicle.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Monitors the tire pressure while you are driving. Available on U.S. models only.
If your vehicle’s tire pressure becomes significantly
low, the low tire pressure indicator comes on and a
message appears in the multi-information display.
Stop your vehicle in a safe place. Check the tire
pressure and adjust the pressure to the specified
level. The specified tire pressure is on a label on the
driver’s doorjamb.
TPMS Calibration Any time you inflate, change, or rotate one of more of the tires, you \
need to
recalibrate the system.
Use the Info (p/q) and SEL/RESET buttons on the steering wheel to control the
multi-information display (see page 24).
1.
Scroll to CUSTOMIZE SETTINGS, and select it.
2.
Select TPMS CALIBRA
TION.
3.
Scroll to CALIBRA
TE, and select it. Calibration
begins.
The calibration process requires approximately 30 minutes of cumulative driving
at speeds between 30–60 mph (48–97 km/h). The process finishes\
automatically.
Driving on an extremely underinflated tire can cause it to overheat. A\
n overheated
tire can fail. Always inflate your tires to the specified pressure.
