The manual transmission is a fully synchronised 6-forward and 1-reverse speed
transmission. To shift into reverse gear, raise and hold the slider ring, shift to the “R”
position, and release the slider ring. Only pull the slider ring up when shifting into reverse
gear.
Automatic Transmission Shift Mode
The Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT)
is electronically controlled and provides two
different driving modes: normal and manual or
normal and low.
Normal Mode
When the select lever is in the “D” (Drive)
position, the transmission is in normal shift
mode. The select lever position indicator in the
Combination Meter Display (CMD) shows “D”
and the transmission automatically shifts into a
suitable forward gear.
Manual Mode(if equipped)
In manual mode, you select the desired gear
position to obtain necessary acceleration and
engine braking. Move the select lever left from
the “D” position into the “M” position to select manual mode. The gear position indicator in
the Combination Meter Display (CMD) shows the currently selected gear. Arrow-shaped
indicators show when upshifting or downshifting is available. To shift, use the paddle shift
control switches behind the steering wheel.
Low Mode(if equipped)
Low Mode is for using engine braking when going down hill, etc. Moving the select lever
left into the “L” position from the “D” (Drive) position causes the transmission to change
into Low Mode. The shift position indicator shows “L” as the selected gear.

such as mud or snow, including
uphill and downhill. You can
activate the system when the
vehicle speed is less than
12 mph. If the vehicle speed

slip in the driving wheels, enabling the vehicle to free itself more effectively. It is suitable
for driving on a roads where the tires can become buried, such as deep snow, dry sand,
