Manual shift mode
When the manual shift mode button
᭺
A is
pressed while driving, the transmission enters the
manual shift mode. Shift ranges can be selected
manually.
In the manual shift mode, the shift range is dis-
played on the position indicator in the meter. After
pressing the manual shift mode button, the posi-
tion indicator first displays M4 (Fourth)
Shift ranges up or down one by one as follows:
M1
←→ M2 ←→ M3 ←→ M4←→D
M4 (Fourth):
For driving up or down long slopes where engine
braking would be advantageous.
Shift ranges up or down one by one as follows:
M1 ←→ M2 ←→ M3 ←→ M4
M4 will be displayed on the position indicator in
the meter.
M3 (Third):
Use for hill climbing or engine braking on downhill
grades.
Shift ranges up or down one by one as follows:
M1
←→ M2 ←→ M3
M3 will be displayed on the position indicator in
the meter.
M2 (Second):
Use for hill climbing or engine braking on downhill
grades.
Shift ranges up or down one by one as follows:
M1
←→ M2
M2 will be displayed on the position indicator in
the meter.
M1 (First):
Use this position when climbing steep hills slowly
or driving slowly through deep snow, sand or
mud, or for maximum engine braking on steep
downhill grades.
M1 will be displayed on the position indicator on
the meter.
● Remember not to drive at high speeds for
extended periods of time in lower than M4
range. This reduces fuel economy.
When shifting up:
Move the shift selector to the + (up) side. (Shifts
to higher range.)
When shifting down:
Move the shift selector to the
Ϫ (down) side.
(Shifts to lower range.)
● The transmission will automatically down-
shift the gears. (For example, if you select the
3rd range, the transmission will shift down
between the 3rd and 1st gears.)
● Moving the shift selector rapidly to the same
side twice will shift the ranges in succession.
