“S” gear (sports gear):
Press the unlock button at the front end of the shift
lever to switch the shift lever to the “S” position.
After the shift lever is switched to “S” position,
transmission will start the sports mode. The
downshift operation will be made according to the
resistance change (such as pulling and uphill
driving, etc.) under this mode. In addition, the
engine will run at high speed to provide greater
power for the vehicle.
The “S” position is mainly used for driving in the
pursuit of dynamic driving, and can be used for
driving in mountainous road conditions, to prevent
frequent shifting.
Warning
In driving process, do not suddenly switch
the shift lever to “R” or “P” gear. Otherwise,
the transmission may be damaged or even
accidents may occur.

switching the start switch or ignition switch to “ON”
position, press the driving mode key on the shift
panel continuously and switch in the modal
sequence of “D
→

mode, which is the normal “D” driving mode
