Features and controls

The CVT selects an optimum ratio automatically when the

selector lever is in the “D” (DRIVE) position, depending on the

speed of the vehicle and the position of the accelerator pedal.

OTE

● To prevent mistakes in operating the lever, make sure you

stop briefly at each position. After operating, check the

position in the multi-information display.

● If the brake pedal is not depressed and held, the shift-lock

device activates to prevent the selector lever from being

moved from the “P” (PARK) position.

● For a shift indicated by in the illustration, depress the

brake pedal before moving the selector lever. If you

attempt to move the selector lever before depressing the

brake pedal, the selector lever may not move.

Set the selector lever in the gate to operate while the

brake pedal is depressed.

WARNING

● Always press the brake pedal when shifting the

selector lever into a selector position from the “N”

When beginning to drive, do not shift the selector

lever from the “N” (NEUTRAL) position while

pressing the accelerator pedal. This will cause the

vehicle to “jump” forward or backward.
