General information
& Gear shift indicator (Europe
models)
CAUTION
The indication of the gear shift
indicator is only a guideline for
driving more fuel-efficiently. The
indicator does not inform the driver
about safe shift operation timing.
The driver has the responsibility for
suitable shift operation depending
on the traffic conditions or driving
conditions (e.g., overtaking or driv-
ing on an uphill slope).
This indicator supports the driver to drive
more fuel-efficiently. The vehicle system
determines the shift operation timing
depending on the driving conditions, and
informs the driver by the indicator on the
combination meter. For details, refer to
"Select lever/gear position indicator" F3-
31.
NOTE
Usually, the gear shift indicator is
guideline for driving more fuel-effi-
ciency and it also may operate to
prevent a possible engine stall at low
engine speed.
