Upshifting
2
Downshifting
The gear changes once every time the pad-
dle shift switch is operated.
The selected gear, from M1 to M10, will be
fixed and displayed in the meter.
Selecting gears in the M position
When in the M position, the gear will not change unless the paddle shift switches are oper-
ated.
However, even when in the M position, the gears will be automatically changed in the fol-
lowing situation:
● LC500
• When vehicle speed drops (downshift only).
• When a gear change is necessary to protect the engine or automatic transmission
when the engine coolant temperature is low, the automatic transmission fluid tempera-
ture is high or low or other reasons.
● LC500h
• When vehicle speed drops (downshift only).
• When vehicle speed increases (upshift only).
• When the accelerator pedal is firmly depressed.
• When a gear change is necessary to protect the transmission fluid temperature is high
or low, or other reasons.
Also, the gear will not shift when the vehicle speed is low, even if an upshift operation is per-
formed.
