S (sport) mode switch
The sport mode switch (1) is used to turn
on and off the sport mode.
To turn on the sport mode, push in the
switch and sport mode indicator (2) will
appear on the information display. To turn
off the sport mode, push in the switch
again and sport mode indicator will go off.
When the engine restarts, the sport mode
is turned to the off automatically.
The sport mode is suitable for the following
driving conditions:
• Driving on hilly, winding roads
– You can drive more smoothly with less
frequent gear changing
• Going down a steep hill
– Some engine braking is provided
WARNING
• Reduce your speed and downshift
to a lower gear before going down
a long or steep hill. A lower gear
will allow the engine to provide
braking. Avoid riding the brakes or
they may overheat, resulting in
brake failure.
• When driving on slippery roads, be
sure to slow down before down-
shifting. Excessive and/or sudden
changes in engine speed may
cause loss of traction, which could
cause you to lose control.
NOTICE
Make sure that the vehicle is com-
pletely stationary before you shift
into reverse.
NOTICE
• To help avoid clutch damage, do
not use the clutch pedal as a foot-
rest while driving or use the clutch
to keep the vehicle stationary on a
slope. Depress the clutch fully
when shifting.
• When shifting or starting off, do not
race the engine. Racing the engine
can shorten engine life and cause
negative effect to smooth shifting.
