2-1. Driving procedures
■ S mode
● When the shift range is “5” or lower, holding the shift lever toward “+” sets
the shift range to “6”.
● To prevent excessive engine speed, a function was adopted that auto-
matically selects a higher shift range before the engine speed becomes
too high.
● To protect the automatic transaxle, a function is adopted that automati-
cally selects a higher shift range when the fluid temperature is high.
■ When driving with the cruise control or dynamic radar cruise control
Engine braking will not occur in S mode, even when downshifting to “5” or
“4”. (
→P. 271, 275)
■ If the shift lever cannot be shifted from P
● →P. 714
● Vehicles with AUTO ACCESS SEAT: If the AUTO ACCESS SEAT has
not been locked in place after being stowed, the shift lever cannot be
shifted from P.
For details, refer to “AUTO ACCESS SEAT OWNER’S MANUAL”.
■ If the “S” indicator does not come on even after shifting the shift lever
to S
This may indicate a malfunction in the automatic transaxle system. Have the
vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer immediately. (In this situation, the
transaxle will operate in the same manner as when the shift lever is in D.)
