AI-SHIFT
■
The AI-SHIFT automatically selects the suitable gear according to driver perfor-
mance and driving conditions.
The AI-SHIFT automatically operates when the shift lever is in the D position. How-
ever, operating the "-" paddle shift switch will restrict the function' s operation. (Shift-
ing the shift lever to the M position cancels the function.)
The engine speed may remain high after releasing the accelerator pedal. This does
not indicate a malfunction.
CAUTION
When driving on slippery road surfaces
■
Be careful of downshifting and sudden acceleration, as this could result in the vehi-
cle skidding to the side or spinning.
