If the engine coolant temperature gauge
needle (white) flashes, there is a possibility
of overheating. Drive slowly to reduce
engine load until you can find a safe place
to stop the vehicle and wait for the engine
to cool down.
Refer to Overheating on page 7-39.
NOTE
xThe temperature unit (Centigrade/
Fahrenheit) of the engine coolant gauge
display changes in conjunction with the
temperature unit of the outside
temperature display.
Refer to Other Equipment/Functions on
page 9-18.
xDuring normal driving, the engine
coolant temperature stabilizes at 100 °C
(210 °F) or less, and the gauge indicates
a range lower than 100 °C (210 °F).

NOTE
xAfter refuelling, it may require some
time for the indicator to stabilize. In
addition, the indicator may deviate
while driving on a slope or curve since
the fuel moves in the tank.
xThe display indicating a quarter or less
remaining fuel has more segments to
show the remaining fuel level in greater
detail.

Do not use sudden engine braking on
slippery road surfaces or at high speeds:
Shifting down while driving on wet, snowy,
or frozen roads, or while driving at high
speeds causes sudden engine braking,
which is dangerous. The sudden change in
tyre speed could cause the tyres to skid.
This could lead to loss of vehicle control
and an accident.
Always leave the shift lever in 1 or R
position and set the parking brake when
leaving the vehicle unattended:
Otherwise the vehicle could move and
cause an accident.
& $ 8 7 , 2 1
¾Keep your foot off the clutch pedal except
when shifting gears. Also, do not use the
clutch to hold the vehicle on an upgrade.
Riding the clutch will cause needless
clutch wear and damage.
¾Do not apply any excessive lateral force
to the shift lever when changing from
5th to 4th gear. This could lead to the
accidental selection of 2nd gear, which
could result in damage to the transaxle.
¾Make sure the vehicle comes to a
complete stop before shifting to R.
Shifting to R while the vehicle is still
moving may damage the transaxle.
NOTE
xIf shifting to R is difficult, shift back into
neutral, release the clutch pedal, and try
again.

x(With i-stop function)
If the engine has stopped due to stalling,
it can be restarted by depressing the
clutch pedal within 3 seconds of the
engine stopping.
The engine cannot be restarted even if
the clutch pedal is depressed under the
following conditions:
xThe driver's door is open.
xThe driver's seat belt is unfastened.
xThe clutch pedal is not released
completely after the engine stalled.
xThe clutch pedal is depressed with the
engine not stopped completely.
x(With parking sensor system)
When the shift lever is shifted to the R
position with the ignition switched ON,
the parking sensor system is activated
and a beep sound is heard.
Refer to Parking Sensor System on page
4-306.

Do not rely solely on the shift-up/
shift-down recommendations by
indications. The actual driving situation
might require shift operations different
from indication. To avoid the risk of
accidents, the road and traffic conditions
have to be judged correctly by the driver
before shifting.
NOTE
The GSI turns off when the following
operations are performed.
xThe vehicle is stopped.
xThe vehicle is put in neutral.
xThe vehicle is driven in reverse.
xThe clutch is not fully engaged when
accelerating from a stop.
xThe clutch pedal remains depressed for
2 seconds or longer while driving.

Lock-release button
Indicates the selector lever can be shifted freely into any position.
Indicates that you must hold in the lock-release button to shift. Indicates that you must depress the brake pedal and hold in the lock-release
button to shift (The ignition must be switched ON). Various Lockouts:
NOTE
The Sport AT has an option that is not included in the traditional automatic transaxle that
gives the driver the option of selecting each gear instead of leaving it to the transaxle to
shift gears. Even if you intend to use the automatic transaxle functions as a traditional
automatic, you should also be aware that you can inadvertently shift into manual shift mode
and an inappropriate gear may be retained as the vehicle speed increases. If you notice the
engine speed going higher or hear the engine racing, confirm you have not accidentally
slipped into manual shift mode (page 4-86).

Always set the selector lever to P position
and set the parking brake:
Only setting the selector lever to the P
position without using the parking brake to
hold the vehicle is dangerous. If P fails to
hold, the vehicle could move and cause an
accident.
& $ 8 7 , 2 1
¾Shifting into P, N or R while the vehicle is
moving can damage your transaxle.
¾Shifting into a driving gear or reverse
when the engine is running faster than
idle can damage the transaxle.

If the engine is running faster than idle, do
not shift from N or P into a driving gear:
It's dangerous to shift from N or P into a
driving gear when the engine is running
faster than idle. If this is done, the vehicle
could move suddenly, causing an accident
or serious injury.
Do not shift into N when driving the
vehicle:
Shifting into N while driving is dangerous.
Engine braking cannot be applied when
decelerating which could lead to an
accident or serious injury.
& $ 8 7 , 2 1
Do not shift into N when driving the
vehicle. Doing so can cause transaxle
damage.
