1904-2. Driving procedures
C-HR_OM_USA_OM10634U
■Gear step functions
●You can choose from 7 levels of engine braking force.
● A lower gear step will provide greater engine braking force tha n 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 continuously variable tr ansmission
system. Have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer immediately.
(In this situation, the transmission will operate in the same m anner 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 ve hicle is
stopped.
● After a stop, the vehicle will start off in M1.
● When the vehicle is stopped, the transmission is set at M1.
■ When driving with dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed range
activated
Even when performing the following actions with the intent of e nabling engine
braking, engine braking will not activate because cruise contro l will not be
canceled.
● When switching the driving mode to sport mode while driving in D position.
( P. 267)
■ Downshifting restrictions warning buzzer
To help ensure safety and driving performance, downshifting ope ration may
sometimes be restricted. In some circumstances, downshifting ma y not be
possible even when the shift lever is operated. (A buzzer will sound twice.)
■ Restraining sudden start (Drive-start Control)
P. 164
■ 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 key system) or IGNITION ON mode
(vehicles with a smart key system), and the brake pedal is bein g depressed.

Driving modes
●
“NORMAL” mode
Provides an optimal balance of fuel economy, quietness, and
dynamic performance. Suitable for city driving.
● “SPORT” mode
Controls the transmission and eng ine to provide quick, powerful
acceleration. This mode also chan ges the steering feel, making it
suitable for when agile driving response is desired, such as wh en
driving on roads with many curves.
When sport mode is selected, the “SPORT” indicator will illumin ate
on the multi-information display.
● “ECO” mode
Helps the driver accelerate in an eco-friendly manner and
improve fuel economy through moderate throttle characteristics
and by controlling the operation of the air conditioning system
(heating/cooling).
When Eco mode is selected, the “ECO MODE” indicator will illumi -
nate on the multi-information display.
While the air conditioning is being used, the system automatically
switches to air conditioning eco mode ( P. 303), allowing for driving
that leads to even better fuel economy.
■ Canceling driving modes
●Select another drive mode. Also, “SPORT” mode will be canceled automati-
cally when the engine switch is turned off.
● “NORMAL” mode and “ECO” mode will not be canceled automatically until
another drive mode is selected, even if the engine switch is tu rned off.
