This position is for normal driving. The transmission shifts automatically and continuously into a suitable gear according to the vehicle speed and the acceleration you require. Also, while driving up and down a hill, the transmission assists and controls the driving performance and engine braking while corresponding to the road grade.
When more acceleration is required in the “D” position, depress the accelerator pedal fully to the floor and hold that position. The transmission will automatically downshift. If you operate one of the shift paddles behind the steering wheel while driving in the “D” position, the transmission will temporarily switch to the manual mode.
In this mode, you can shift into any gear position using the shift paddles. For details about the manual mode, refer to “Selection of manual mode” F7-25. Once the vehicle speed stabilizes, the transmission will switch from the manual mode back to the “D” position for normal driving.
