It is recommended that you downshift to a
lower gear when needed to maintain the
desired speed, according to the table.
Avoid downshifting at too high a speed. The
engine may suffer damage.
To maintain a safe speed and prolong brake
life, shift down to 2nd or 1st when descend-
ing a steep hill.
Downshifting is also important to avoid “lug-
ging” the engine at too low a speed, such as
when turning a corner or when driving up a
steep hill.

Do not use the gearshift lever as a hand
rest. This can result in premature wear of
the transaxle shift forks.
The table above shows the maximum rec-
ommended driving speed in each gear. Do
not drive near or at these speeds for pro-
longed periods of time.

The CVT will automatically and continuously
change its gear ratio depending on road and
driving conditions. This helps achieve
smooth driving and excellent fuel efficiency.
If your vehicle is equipped with the spor-
tronic steering wheel paddle shifter, you can
manually shift the transmission up and down.
Refer to “Sports mode” on page 5-56.
The transmission prevents unnecessary
upshifts even when the accelerator pedal is
released and ensures smooth driving.
According to the conditions, the transmission
will automatically shift to a lower gear ratio
to achieve stronger engine braking. This may
help reduce your need to use the service
brake.

As an additional safety precaution, models
equipped with a continuously variable trans-
mission have a shift-lock device that holds
the selector lever in the “P” (PARK) position.
To move the selector lever from the “P”
(PARK) position to another position, follow
the steps below.
1. Press and hold the brake pedal down.
