Switches and controls
When you stop the vehicle to wait at signals or in a
traffic jam, the clutch automatically disengages as
the vehicle slows down and an automatic gear
change takes place as follows:
•
When driving in the automatic shift mode, the
2nd gear will be automatically engaged. On
uphill roads, the 1st gear may be engaged
depending on the steepness of the slope and
the vehicle loading.
•
When driving in the manual shift mode, the 2nd
gear will be automatically engaged if 3rd or
higher gear was selected before stopping. On
uphill roads, the 1st gear may be engaged
depending on the steepness of the slope and
the vehicle loading.
•
Keep the brake pedal fully depressed while
stopped.
•
In the case of a prolonged stop, you can release
the brake pedal after engaging the parking
brake and placing the gearshift lever in the “P”
position.
9 Leaving the vehicle with the engine
running
Leave the vehicle after confirming the following:
1. The parking brake is firmly applied.
2. The gearshift lever is in the “P” position.
3. The gear position indicator is showing “P”.
NOTE:
A buzzer sounds continuously if the driver’s door or
assistant driver’s door is opened while the engine is
running and the gearshift lever is in the “D” position.
The buzzer stops if the gearshift lever is moved to
the “P” or “N” position, the engine is stopped, or the
door is closed. If the gearshift lever is moved to the
“R” position while the engine is running, the buzzer
sounds intermittently. Always stop the engine with
the gearshift lever in the “P” position.
