Manual Description
Whether the vehicle is stationary or in motion, sports mode is selected by gently pushing the selector lever from the “D” (DRIVE) position into the manual gate (A). To return to “D” range operation, gently push the selector lever back into the main gate (B). In sports mode, gear shifts can be made rapidly simply by moving the selector lever backward and forward.
In contrast to a manual transmission, the sports mode allows gear shifts with the accelerator pedal depressed. On petrol-powered vehicles, the upward shift may be made automatically in sports mode when the engine revolutions rises and approaches the tachometer’s red zone (the red-coloured part of the tachometer dial). In sports mode, only the 5 forward gears can be selected.
To reverse or park the vehicle, move the selector lever to the “R” (REVERSE) or “P” (PARK) position as required. To maintain good running performance, the transmission may refuse to perform an upshift when the selector lever is moved to the “+ (SHIFT UP)” position at certain vehicle speeds. Also, to prevent over-revving of the engine, the transmission may refuse to perform a downshift when the lever is moved to the “— (SHIFT DOWN)” position at certain vehicle speeds. In sports mode, downward shifts are made automatically when the vehicle slows down. When the vehicle stops, 1st gear is automatically selected. When driving away on a slippery road, push the selector lever forward into the “+ (SHIFT UP)” position. This causes the transmission to shift into the 2nd gear which is better for smooth driving away on a slippery road. Push the selector lever to the “— (SHIFT DOWN)” side to shift back to the 1st gear.
