(REGENERATIVE BRAKE) position af-
ter it had been shifted to the “R” (RE- VERSE) position.
l If you perform the following operation, the
buzzer sounds and the selector lever opera-
tion is cancelled.
• When in the “P” (PARK) position, the se-
lector lever is moved without depressing
the brake pedal.
• When in the “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEU-
TRAL) position, the selector lever is
moved to “B” (REGENERATIVE

The regenerative braking level can be switch-
ed in 6 levels from B0 (small regenerative braking force) to B5 (large regenerative brak-ing force).CAUTIONl If a large regenerative brake force is applied
on a slippery road, tyres may skid. Always
drive safely in accordance with the prevail- ing road condition.
l If you operate the right and left paddles si-
multaneously, the regenerative brake force
level may not change.NOTEl Repeated continuous operation of a paddle
will continuously change the brake forcelevels.
l If you turn on the cruise control when the
level B0 or B1 (smaller regenerative brake
force) is selected, the level is returned to the
normal level B2 automatically.
l When stronger regenerative braking is gen-
erated, the stop lamps will illuminate even when the brake pedal is not depressed.
l Under the cruise control, the level B0 or B1
cannot be selected. The buzzer sounds if you
try to select these levels.
