Manual shift

Using the gearshift lever (A) or the shift paddles
(B), shifting can be performed manually.

Shifting can be performed even while the accelera-
tor pedal is depressed.
This allows the driver to enjoy sporty driving, such
as quick cornering, by nimbly downshifting to re-
duce vehicle speed just before entering a curve.
CAUTION
l When manually shifting while the vehicle
is being driven, select the correct shift po-
sition to control the engine speed so that
the tachometer indicator does not enter
the red zone.
