Sports mode

Whether the vehicle is stationary or

in motion, sports mode is selected by

pushing the shift lever from the “D”

position into the manual gate. To

return to “D” range operation, push

the shift lever back into the main

gate.

In sports mode, moving the shift

lever backwards and forwards will

allow you to make gearshifts rapidly.

In contrast to a manual transaxle, the

sports mode allows gearshifts with

the accelerator pedal depressed.

Up (+) : Push the lever forward

once to shift up one gear.

Down (-) : Pull the lever backwards

once to shift down one

gear.

Snow mode

When taking off from a standstill on a

slippery road, push the shift lever for-

ward into the +(up) position. This

causes the transaxle to shift into the

2nd gear which is better for smooth

driving on a slippery road.

Push the shift lever to the -(down)

side to shift back to the 1st gear.

✽✽

NOTICE

• Upshifts do not take place auto-

matically in sports mode. The

driver must execute upshifts in

accordance with road conditions,

taking care to keep the engine

speed below the red zone.

• In sports mode, only the four for-

ward gears can be selected. To

reverse or park the vehicle, move

the shift lever to the “R” or “P”

position as required.

• In sports mode, downshifts are

made automatically when the

vehicle slows down. When the

vehicle stops, 1st gear is automati-

cally selected.

• In sports mode, when the engine

rpm approaches the red zone shift

points are varied to upshift auto-

matically.

• To maintain the required levels of

vehicle performance and safety,

the system may not execute cer-

tain gearshifts when the shift lever

is operated.
