Changing shift ranges in S mode
To enter S mode, shift the shift lever to the S position. The shift range can
then be selected by operating the “-” and “+” paddle shift switches (if
equipped) or the shift lever. Changing the shift range allows restriction of
the upper limit of the gears to be used, preventing unnecessary upshifting
and enabling the level of engine braking force to be selected.
Upshifting
Downshifting
The initial shift range in S mode is set automatically to “5” or “4” accord-
ing to vehicle speed. However, the initial shift range may be set to “3” if
AI-SHIFT has operated while the shift lever was in the D position.

Shift ranges and their functions
●
Automatically selecting gears between 1 and 6 according to vehicle
speed and driving conditions. But the gear is limited according to
selected shift range.
●
You can choose from 6 levels of engine braking force.
●
A lower shift range will provide greater engine braking force than a
higher shift range, and the engine speed will also increase.
