Driving and Operating
To enable A/S mode:
1. Move the shift lever to
position D.
2. Push the lever to the left.
3. Shift to the required gear:
To shift up a gear, briefly pull the
lever rearwards (+) and
release it.
To shift down a gear, briefly push
the lever forwards ( ) and
release it.
After changing the gear and
releasing the shift lever, it returns to
the centre position on the left side of
the selector.
On the bottom of the display, M and
the currently selected gear appears
as long as A/S mode is selected.
The transmission will shift to a
selected gear only if the engine
speed is within a suitable range.
If not suitable, Shift Denied will
be displayed and the
transmission will not shift gears.
Continuing to hold the lever in
the
position will select the
requested gear as soon as the
engine speed decreases to the
allowed speed for that gear.
If the engine speed becomes too
low for the currently selected
gear, the transmission will
automatically shift down, even
though A/S mode is still
selected.
While in A/S mode, 2nd or 3rd
gear starts (V8) or 2nd gear
starts (V6) can be selected from
a standing start. This is useful
for gentle acceleration on
slippery surfaces.
V8, when vehicle speed is
14 km/h or less, engine speed is
limited to 5,000 RPM.
To disable A/S mode and return to
normal shift mode, push the shift
lever to the right, to position D (on
the bottom of the display, D is
displayed).
To disable A/S mode and return to
Sport shift mode, hold the shift lever
in the + position for more than
1 second (on the bottom of the
display, S is displayed).
