Driving your vehicle
D (Drive)
This is the normal forward driving
position. The transmission will auto-
matically shift, providing the best fuel
economy and power.
For extra power when passing anoth-
er vehicle or climbing grades,
depress the accelerator fully, at which
time the transmission will automati-
cally downshift to the next lower gear.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
Always come to a complete stop
before shifting into D (Drive).

Manual Mode
Whether the vehicle is stationary or in
motion, Manual Mode is selected by
pushing the shift lever from the D (Drive)
position into the manual gate. To return
to D (Drive) range operation, push the
shift lever back into the main gate.
Manual Mode manages the driving
dynamics by automatically adjusting the
steering effort and the engine and trans-
mission control logic for enhanced driv-
er performance.
In Manual Mode, moving the shift
lever backwards or forwards will
allow you to make gearshifts rapidly.
In contrast to a manual transmission,
the Manual Mode allows gearshifts
with
the
accelerator
depressed.
Up (+) : Push the lever forward
once to shift up one gear.
Down (-) : Pull the lever backwards
once to shift down one gear.
