●

You press one of the two paddle

shifters while another paddle

shifter is being pressed.

●

You are trying to downshift from

second to first with the accelerator

pedal off. This will only work when

the accelerator pedal is applied

deeply.

The transmission downshifts to first

gear and returns to drive mode (D)

when the vehicle comes to a

complete stop and the vehicle speed

is about 6 mph (9 km/h).

If there is a problem in the

transmission while you are driving

with the paddle shifters, the D

indicator flashes, the D-paddle shift

mode is canceled, and the

transmission returns to drive mode

(D).

Using the Paddle Shifters in the S

position (Sequential Shift Mode)

With the shift lever in the S position,

you can select the sequential shift

mode to shift gears; much like a

manual transmission using the

paddle shifters, but without a clutch

pedal.

To enter the sequential shift mode,

press the release button on the front

of the shift lever, move the lever to

the S position, then pull either paddle

shifter. To cancel the sequential shift

mode and return to the ordinary

automatic transmission, move the

shift lever from S position. When

moving the shift lever, be careful not

to operate incorrectly. While you are

driving in the sequential shift mode,

the transmission will not

automatically return to ordinary

automatic transmission.

When you move the shift lever from

‘‘D’’ to ‘‘S’’ position and pull either

paddle shifter, the gear position

indicator displays the selected gear

number.

Shifting between first and second

gears may occur automatically.

Downshifting from second to first

with the accelerator pedal off is not

allowed.
