cause a braking effect accompanied by
vibration and noise. This does not
indicate a problem. The phenomenon
will disappear when setting the initial
LSD torque to the minimum.
In the auto mode, it controls the initial
LSD torque automatically. While in the
auto mode, this phenomenon some-
times occurs depending on the driving
condition, however, it does not indicate
a problem.
.
Use the center differential indicator
only as a rough indication of the initial
LSD torque.
.
If you operate the center differential
control switch while quickly accelerat-
ing or turning a tight corner, you may
feel slight shocks. This is due to
differential action by the center differ-
ential and does not indicate a problem.
&
Temporary release
When the driver stops the vehicle and
pulls the parking brake lever after manu-
ally setting the initial LSD torque, the LSD
torque is temporarily minimized. However
the indicator on the combination meter
continues to show the driver
’
s selected
initial LSD torque. When the driver re-
leases the parking brake lever, the initial
LSD torque set by the driver is restored.
Continuously variable trans-
mission
The continuously variable transmission is
electronically controlled and provides an
infinite number of forward speeds and 1
reverse speed. It also has a manual mode.
WARNING
Do not shift from the
“
P
”
or
“
N
”
position into the
“
D
”
or
“
R
”
position
while depressing the accelerator
pedal. This may cause the vehicle
to lurch forward or backward.
CAUTION
.
Shift into the
“
P
”
or
“
R
”
position
only after the vehicle is comple-
tely stopped. Shifting while the
vehicle is moving may cause
damage to the transmission.
.
Do not race the engine for more
than 5 seconds in any position
except the
“
N
”
or
“
P
”
position
when the brake is applied or
when chocks are used in the
wheels. This may cause the
transmission fluid to overheat.
.
Never move the vehicle rearward
by inertia with the select lever set
in a forward driving position or
move the vehicle forward by
inertia with the select lever set
in the R position. Doing so may
result in an unexpected accident
or malfunction.
.
Avoid shifting from one of the
forward driving positions into the
“
R
”
position or vice versa until
the vehicle has completely
stopped. Such shifting may
cause damage to the transmis-
sion.
.
When parking the vehicle, first
securely apply the parking brake
and then place the select lever in
the
“
P
”
position. Avoid parking
for a long time with the select
lever in any other position as
doing so could result in a dead
battery.
NOTE
.
When the engine coolant tempera-
ture is still low, the transmission will
upshift or downshift at higher engine
speeds than when the coolant tempera-
ture is sufficiently high in order to
shorten the warm-up time and improve
driveability. The gearshift timing will
