2264-2. Driving procedures
UK AURIS_HB_EE (OM12K97E)
To enter 7-speed sport sequential shiftmatic mode, shift the shift lever
to M position. Gear steps can then be selected by operating the shift
lever or paddle shift switches (vehicles with a paddle shift switch),
allowing you to drive in the gear step of your choosing.
Upshifting
Downshifting
The gear changes once every time
the shift lever or paddle shift switch
is operated.
The selected gear step, from M1 to
M7, will be displayed in the meter.
*1: Vehicles with a 3-ring meter
*2: Vehicles with a 2-ring meter
However, even when in the M position, the gear steps will be automat-
ically changed if the engine speed is too high, or too low.
■Gear step functions
●You can choose from 7 levels of engine braking force.
●A lower gear step will provide greater engine braking force than a higher
gear step, and the engine speed will also increase.
■If the 7-speed sport sequential shiftmatic mode indicator does not come
on even after shifting the shift lever to M
This may indicate a malfunction in the Multidrive system. Have the vehicle
inspected by any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly quali-
fied and equipped professional immediately.
(In this situation, the transmission will operate in the same manner as when
the shift lever is in D.)
■When the vehicle comes to a stop with the shift lever in the M position
●The transmission will automatically downshift to M1 once the vehicle is
stopped.
●After a stop, the vehicle will start off in M1.
●When the vehicle is stopped, the transmission is set at M1.

Driving
■Automatic deactivation of gear steps selection in the D position (vehi-
cles with a paddle shift switch)
Temporally gear steps selection mode in the D position will be deactivated in
the following situations:
●When the vehicle comes to a stop
●If the accelerator pedal is depressed for more than a certain period of time in
one gear step
●When the shift lever is shifted to other than D
●When the “+” paddle shift switch is held down for a period of time
■When driving with cruise control activated (if equipped)
Even when performing the following actions with the intent of enabling engine
braking, engine braking will not activate because cruise control will not be
canceled.
●While driving in D or 7-speed sport sequential shiftmatic mode, downshifting
to 6, 5 or 4. (P. 299)
●When switching the driving mode to sport mode while driving in D position.
(P. 224)
■Downshifting restrictions warning buzzer
To help ensure safety and driving performance, downshifting operation may
sometimes be restricted. In some circumstances, downshifting may not be
possible even when the shift lever or paddle shift switch (if equipped) is oper-
ated. (A buzzer will sound twice.)
■Sport mode automatic deactivation
Sport mode is automatically deactivated if the engine switch is turned off after
driving in sport mode.
■Shift lock system
The shift lock system is a system to prevent accidental operation of the shift
lever in starting.
The shift lever can be shifted from P only when the engine switch is in the
“ON” position (vehicles without a smart entry & start system) or IGNITION ON
mode (vehicles with a smart entry & start system) and the brake pedal is
being depressed.

to the brake pedal or shift lever operation (vehicles with a
Multidrive), or clutch pedal operation (vehicles with a manual
transmission) when the vehicle is stopped.

■If the Stop & Start cancel switch is pressed while the vehicle is
stopped
●When the engine is stopped by the Stop & Start system, pressing
the Stop & Start cancel switch will restart the engine.
From the next time the vehicle is stopped (after Stop & Start sys-
tem has been turned off), the engine will not be stopped.
●With the Stop & Start system disabled, pressing the Stop & Start
cancel switch will re-enable the system but not stop the engine.
From the next time the vehicle is stopped (after Stop & Start sys-
tem has been turned on), the engine will be stopped.

Driving
After the engine is stopped by the Stop & Start system when the vehi-
cle is on an incline, brake force is temporarily maintained to prevent
rolling backwards until the engine is restarted and drive force is gener-
ated.
When drive force is generated, the maintained brake force is automat-
ically canceled.
●This function operates on flat surfaces as well as steep inclines.
●Sound may be generated from the brakes, but this is not a malfunc-
tion.
●Brake pedal response may change and vibration may occur, but
these are not malfunctions.
■Operating conditions
●The Stop & Start system is operational when all of the following conditions
are met:
• Vehicles with a Multidrive: The brake pedal is being depressed firmly.
• Vehicles with a Multidrive: The shift lever is in a position other than R.
• is off.
• The driver’s seat belt is fastened.
• The engine is adequately warmed up.
• The driver’s door is closed.
• Vehicles with a Multidrive: The accelerator pedal is not being depressed.
• Vehicles with a manual transmission: The clutch pedal is not being
depressed.
• The outside temperature is -5°C (23°F) or higher.
• Vehicles with a manual transmission: The shift lever is in N.
• The hood is closed.
