lever in the “D” (DRIVE) or “R” (REVERSE) position. This occurs because the transaxle has not warmed up sufficiently; it does not indicate aproblem. If this occurs, place the selector lever in the “P” (PARK) position and let the engine idle for at least 10 minutes.The transaxle will warm up, and you will be able to start normally. Do not leave the vehicle during warm-upoperation.

The CVT will automatically and continuously change its gear ratio depending on road anddriving conditions. This helps achieve smooth driving and excellent fuel efficiency. Also you can manually shift the transmissionup and down. Refer to “Sports mode” on page 5-67. The transmission prevents unnecessary upshifts even when the accelerator pedal is released and ensures smooth driving. According to the condi
tions, the transmission
will automatically shift to a lower gear ratio to achieve stronger engine braking. This mayhelp reduce your need to use the service brake.

As an additional safe
ty precaution, models
equipped with a CVT have a shift-lock device
that holds the selector lever in the “P” (PARK) position. To move the selector lever from the “P” (PARK) position to another position, follow the steps below. 1. Press and hold the brake pedal down. 2. Press and hold the lock button. 3. Move the selector lever to the desired position.
The CVT selects an optimum ratio automati- cally when the selector lever is in the “D”(DRIVE) position, depending on the speed of the vehicle and the position of the accelerator pedal.The selector lever (A) has two gates; the main gate (B) and sports mode gate (C).
Turbocharger operation
CAUTION Do not run the engine at high speeds (for example, by revving it or by acceleratingrapidly) immediately after starting it. Do not stop the engine immediately after high-speed or uphill driving. First allow the engine to idle to give the turbocharger a chance to cool down. Replace the engine oil at the specified inter- vals. If the engine oil is not replaced, the tur-bocharger could malfunction.

The selector lever cannot be moved from “P” (PARK) to other position if the ignition switch is set to the “OFF” or “ACC” posi- tion, or if the key has been removed, or theoperation mode is put in OFF or ACC, or if the brake pedal is not
pressed and held down.
