C-HR_HEV_OM_Europe_OM10764E
■Shift ranges and their functions (S mode)
● You can choose from 6 levels of accelerating force and engine braking
force.
● A lower shift range will provide greater accelerating force and engine brak-
ing force than a higher shift range, and the engine revolutions will also
increase.
■ When driving with cruise control or dynamic radar cruise control with
full-speed range acti vated (if equipped)
Even when performing the following with the intent of enabling engine brak-
ing, engine braking will not activate because cruise control or dynamic radar
cruise control with full-speed range will not be canceled.
● While driving in S mode, downshifting to 5 or 4.
● When switching the driving mode to sport mode while driving in D position.
( P. 430)
■ Restraining sudden start (Drive-start Control)
 P. 284
■ Shift lock system
The shift lock system is a system to prevent accidental operati on of the shift
lever in starting.
The shift lever can be shifted from P only when the power switc h is in ON
mode and the brake pedal is being depressed.
■ If the shift lever cannot be shifted from P
First, check whether the brake pedal is being depressed.
If the shift lever cannot be shifted with your foot on the brak e pedal while
pressing the button on the shift knob, there may be a problem w ith the shift
lock system. Have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyot a retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer immediatel y.

■Cruise control can be set when
● The shift lever is in D.
● Vehicle speed is above approximately 30 km/h (20 mph).

by first accelerating the vehicle to the desired speed and then pushing the
lever down to set the new speed.
■ Automatic cruise control cancelation
Cruise control is automatically canceled in any of the followin g situations.
● Actual vehicle speed falls more than approximately 16 km/h (10 mph) below
the set speed.
At this time, the memorized set speed is not retained.
● Actual vehicle speed is below approximately 30 km/h (20 mph).
● VSC is activated.
● TRC is activated for a period of time.
● When the VSC or TRC system is turned off by pressing the VSC off switch.
