NOTE
l

dles, you can shift into sports mode with
shift paddles when the selector lever is in the

"D" range operation in any of following ways.
When returning to "D" range operation, the
selector lever position display will change to
"D" (DRIVE) position.

dle forward (towards the driver) for over

Upward shifts do not take place automat-

do not use the left- and right-hand shift
paddles at the same time. Doing so could
cause a shift of gear ratio that you do not
expect.

tios can be selected. To reverse or park the ve-
hicle, move the selector lever to the "R" (RE-

form a downshift when the lever is moved to
the "- (SHIFT DOWN)" position at certain
vehicle speeds. When this happens, a buzzer
sounds to indicate that a downshift is not go-
