OYou can choose from 6 levels of accelerating force and engine braking force.
OA lower shift range will provide greater accelerating force and engine braking
force than a higher shift range, and the engine revolutions will also increase.
OTo prevent the engine from over-rev-ving, upshifting may automatically
occur when the shift range is 3 or lower.
OWhen the shift range is 4 or lower, holding the shift lever toward “+” sets the shift range to 6.
