transmission will automatically switch
back from manual mode to normal mode.
NOTE
Please read the following points care-
fully and bear them in mind when using
the manual mode.
y
When the temperature of the auto-
matic transmission fluid is higher than
normal, warning beeps are emitted and
the shift position indicator shows “–”.
If these warnings are issued, deselect
the manual mode to protect the auto-
matic transmission from damage.
y
The transmission does not automati-
cally shift up in the manual mode. Per-
form gearshifts in accordance with
road conditions so that the tachometer
needle does not enter the red zone. If
the engine speed reaches a predeter-
mined level, a fuel-cut function will op-
erate. Shift up if this happens. (Also, in
the case of a 3.0-liter models, the trans-
mission may automatically shift up to
protect the engine.)
y
If you attempt to shift down when the
engine speed is too high, i.e., when a
downshift would push the tachometer
needle beyond the red zone, beeps will
be emitted to warn you that the down-
shift is not possible.
y
If you attempt to shift up when the
vehicle speed is too low, the transmis-
sion will not respond.
y
You can perform a skip-shift (for ex-
ample, from 4th to 2nd) by operating
the selector lever or a steering-wheel
switch twice in rapid succession.
y
The transmission automatically se-
lects 1st gear when the vehicle stops
moving.
y
If the temperature of the automatic
transmission fluid becomes too high,
the “AT OIL TEMP” warning light will
come on. Immediately stop the vehicle
in a safe place and let the engine idle
until the warning light goes off.

Maximum speeds
The following tables show the maximum
speeds that are possible with each differ-
ent gear.
When down shifting, it is important to con-
firm that the current vehicle speed is not in
excess of the Maximum Allowable Speed
of the gear which is about to be selected.
km/h (mph)
When down shifting, ensure that the
vehicle is not travelling at a speed
exceeding the Maximum Allowable
Speed for the gear which is about to
be selected. Failure to observe this
precaution can lead to engine over-
revving and this in turn can result in
engine damage.
In addition, sudden application of
engine braking caused by down
shifting when the vehicle is travel-
ling on a slippery surface can lead to
wheel locking; as a consequence,
control of the vehicle may be lost
and the risk of an accident in-
creased.
