MANUAL MODE SHIFT CONTROL STRUCTURE [SJ6A-EL]
Features
• The manual mode shift control is activated by moving the selector lever from the D to M range position (selector
lever is shifted over toward driver side).
• Manual mode shift control with a manual shifting system allowing selection of gear positions by manual
operation of the selector lever forward (–) and back (+) has been adopted. Moreover, engine braking for 1—
4GR in manual mode according to the gear ratio is available.
— Shifting between 1GR and 2GR when the vehicle is stopped is possible. Moreover, when shifting from the D
to M range while driving, the same gear position is maintained.
— Consecutive shifting in the M range has been adopted. When shifting down from M range 6GR or 5GR, one
gear can be skipped over by rapidly tapping the selector lever two times in the down-shift (–) direction.
• Specialized manual mode selector lever position and gear position indicator lights, built into the instrument
cluster, have been adopted. The gear position indicator light displays the selected gear position while in manual
mode.
— The selector indicator light includes a selector lever position indicator that displays selector lever positions
and, in M range, a gear position indicator light that displays gear positions.

MANUAL MODE SHIFT CONTROL OPERATION [SJ6A-EL]
Manual Mode Shift
• When the selector lever is shifted over from the D to M range position, the M range switch in the selector lever
component turns on, sending a manual mode command signal to the TCM which activates the manual mode
shift control.
• When in manual mode and the selector lever is operated in the back (+) direction, the up switch in the selector
lever component is turned on and an up-shift command signal is input to the TCM.
— The TCM, triggered by the up-shift command signal, carries out shifting by outputting an operation signal to
the shift control solenoid.
