Continuously variable transmission (CVT) (if so equipped)
Features and controls
5-53
5
Move the lever to this position only after the
vehicle has come to a complete stop.
At this position, the transmission is disen-
gaged. It is the same as the neutral position on
a manual transaxle and should be used when
the vehicle is not moving for an extended
length of time during driving, such as in a
traffic jam.
This position is used for most city and high-
way driving. The transmission will automati-
cally and continuously change its gear ratio
depending on road and driving conditions.

Whether the vehicle is stationary or in
motion, sports mode is selected by pushing
the selector lever from the “D” (DRIVE)
position into the manual gate (A). To return to
“D” (DRIVE) operation, push the selector
lever back into the main gate (B).
In sports mode, rapid shifting is possible sim-
ply by operating the selector lever or spor-
tronic steering wheel paddle shifter.
Unlike the manual transaxle, sports mode
allows shifting with the accelerator pedal
depressed.
“R” REVERSE
CAUTION
Never shift into the “P” (PARK) or “R”
(REVERSE) position while the vehicle is in
motion. If the lever is shifted into the “P”
(PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) position while
the vehicle is in motion, the transmission
may be damaged.
“N” NEUTRAL
WARNING
Never move the selector lever to the “N”
(NEUTRAL) position while driving since
you could accidentally slip it into the “P”
(PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) position,
damaging the transmission.
To prevent the vehicle from rolling when
stopped on a slope, the engine should be
started in the “P” (PARK) position, not in
“N” (NEUTRAL) position.
To prevent rolling, always keep your foot
on the brake pedal when the vehicle is in
“N” (NEUTRAL) position, or when shift-
ing into or out of “N” (NEUTRAL) posi-
tion.
“D” DRIVE
CAUTION
To prevent transmission damage, never shift
into the “D” (DRIVE) position from the “R”
(REVERSE) position while the vehicle is in
motion.
Sports mode
WARNING
NOTE
For vehicles equipped with the sportronic
steering wheel paddle shifter, sports mode
can be operated even when the selector lever
is in the main gate (B). Also, you can return
to the “D” operation in any of following
ways. When returning to “D” operation, the
selector lever position display will change to
“D” (DRIVE) position.
• Pull the + (SHIFT UP) side sportronic
steering wheel paddle shifter forward
(toward the driver) for over 2 seconds.
• Stop the vehicle
• Push the selector lever from the “D”
(DRIVE) position into the manual gate (A)
and push the selector lever back into the
main gate (B).
