2-1. Driving procedures
Starting off control
■
The ASG does not have the creep function of a conventional automatic transmis-
sion. The vehicle can be driven by selecting 1st gear or Reverse and depressing the
accelerator pedal.
Maximum speed for each gear
■
To avoid over-revving the engine, do not exceed the maximum speed for each gear
as shown below.
*: Always observe the legal speed limit when driving on public roads.
Gear shift control
■
To ensure safety and driving performance, the following restrictions exist:
Gear shifting with the paddle shift switches may not be possible under certain
●
driving conditions.
Even while driving with a gear manually selected in SPORT, NORMAL, or
●
WET driving mode, the gears may change automatically under certain driving
conditions.
If the paddle shift switches are operated repeatedly in a short space of time, a
●
temporary restriction of gear shifting may be activated. In this case, "Transmis-
sion pump overheat Shift rejected" will be displayed on the meter. (P. 327)
Gear shifting with the paddle shift switches may not be possible when the trans-
●
mission fluid temperature is low. In this case, "Transmission temp low Shift
restricted" will be displayed on the meter. (P. 327)
