Shift range selection in the D position will be deactivated in the following situ-
ations:

● When the vehicle comes to a stop
●
If the accelerator pedal is depressed for more than a certain period of time
●
When the shift lever is shifted to a position other than D
■
S mode
●
When the shift range is 7 or lower, holding the shift lever toward "+" sets the
shift range to 8.
● To prevent the engine from over-revving, upshifting may automatically
occur.
●
To protect the automatic transmission, a function is adopted that automati-
cally selects a higher shift range when the fluid temperature is high.
■ Downshift restriction warning buzzer (S mode or paddle shifting)
To help ensure safety and driving performance, downshifting operation may
sometimes be restricted. In some circumstances, downshifting may not be
possible even when the shift lever or paddle shift switches are operated. (A
buzzer will sound twice.)
