We have designed your vehicle to improve
fuel economy by reducing fuel usage
compared to a traditional torque converter
automatic transmission. When you take

Hints on Driving with an Automatic
Transmission
WARNING: Do not apply the brake
and accelerator pedals simultaneously for
more than three seconds as this limits
engine rpm and labors the transmission.
This may make it difficult to maintain
speeds in traffic and lead to an accident
or injury. WARNING:
Do not idle the engine
for long periods of time in D with the
brakes applied. This could damage the
transmission and may lead to an accident
or injury.
Note: The system carries out a series of
checks when you switch the ignition on and
off. You may hear clicking sounds. This is
normal.
Moving off
1. Press the brake pedal to apply the brakes.
2. Move the transmission selector lever to
R,D or S.
3. Release the parking brake.
4. Release the brake pedal and press the
accelerator pedal.
Stopping
1. Release the accelerator pedal and press the brake pedal.
2. Apply the parking brake.
3. Move the transmission selector lever to
N or P. Downshift
Press the accelerator pedal fully with the
transmission selector lever in either
D,
S
mode or manual shifting position to select
a lower gear for optimum performance.
Release the accelerator pedal when you
no longer require downshift.
If Your Vehicle Gets Stuck In Mud or
Snow
If your vehicle gets stuck in mud or snow,
it may be rocked out by shifting between
D
and R, stopping between shifts in a
steady pattern. Press the accelerator
lightly in each gear.
Note: Do not rock your vehicle if the engine
is not at normal operating temperature as
this can damage the transmission.
Note: Do not rock your vehicle for more
than a minute as this can damage the
transmission or the tires and the engine may
overheat.
Emergency Park Position Release
Lever WARNING: Do not drive your vehicle
until you verify that the brake lamps are
working. Failure to adhere to warning
indicators may lead to an accident or injury. WARNING: If you release the parking
brake and the brake warning lamp remains
illuminated the brakes may not be working
correctly. Have your vehicle checked by an
authorized dealer as soon as possible.
Failure to adhere to warning lamps and
indicators may lead to an accident or injury.

ECO MODE (If Equipped)
This system assists you in driving more
efficiently by constantly monitoring
characteristics of gear changing,
anticipation of traffic conditions and
speeds while driving.
The value of these characteristics is
represented by petals shown in the display,
with five petals being the most efficient.
The more efficiently you drive, the better
the rating, and the better your vehicle's
overall fuel economy.
Note: These efficiency values do not result
in a defined fuel consumption figure. It might
vary as it is not only related to these driving
habits, but also influenced by many other
factors such as short trips and cold starts.
Note: Frequent short trips, where the engine
does not fully warm up, will also increase
fuel consumption
The system is accessed using the
information display control. See
General
Information (page 84).

consumption. Anticipation
Adjust your vehicle speed and the distance
to other vehicles to avoid the need for

fuel economy.
Efficient speed
Reduce your cruising speed on open roads
to improve economy. Higher speeds use
more fuel.
Resetting Eco Mode
Reset the average fuel consumption by
using the information display control.

for recreational (RV) towing. An example
of recreational towing would be towing
your vehicle behind a motorhome. These
guidelines are designed to ensure that your
transmission is not damaged.
Vehicles with a Manual Transmission
Your vehicle can be towed with all four
wheels on the ground or with the front
wheels off the ground by using a tow dolly.
