In sports mode, when the engine rpm
approaches the red zone, the transaxle
will upshift automatically.
Whether the vehicle is stationary or in
motion, sports mode is selected by push-
ing the shift lever from the D (Drive) posi-
tion into the manual gate. To return to D
(Drive) range operation, push the shift
lever back into the main gate.
The paddle shifter is available when the
shift lever is in the D position or the sport
mode.
To maintain the required levels of
vehicle performance and safety, the
system
may not execute certain
gearshifts when the shift lever is oper-
ated.
In sports mode, moving the shift lever
backwards and forwards will allow you to
make gearshifts rapidly.
Up (+) : Push the lever forward once to
shift up one gear.
•
When driving on a slippery road,
push the shift lever forward 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.
Down (-) : Pull the lever backwards once
to shift down one gear.
