4-2. Driving procedures
HIGHLANDER HV_U
When the shift lever is in the S
position, the shift lever can be
operated as follows:
1
Upshifting
2
Downshifting
The selected shift range, from S1 to
S6, will be displayed on the
multi-information display.
The initial shift range in S mode is
set automatically to S4 or S5
according to vehicle speed.
■ S mode
● You can choose from 6 levels of
accelerating force and engine
braking force.
● A lower shift range will provide
greater accelerating force and
engine braking force than a higher
shift range, and the engine revolu-
tions will also increase.
● To prevent the engine from
over-revving, upshifting may auto-
matically occur when the shift
range is 4 or lower.
● When the shift range is 4 or lower,
holding the shift lever toward “+”
sets the shift range to 6.
■ Downshifting restrictions warn-
ing buzzer
To help ensure safety and driving
performance, downshifting opera-
tion may sometimes be restricted. In
some circumstances, downshifting
may not be possible even when the
shift lever is operated. (A buzzer
willsound twice.)
■ If the S indicator does not come
on or the D indicator is dis-
played even after shifting the
shift lever to S
This may indicate a malfunction in
the hybrid transmission system.
Have the vehicle inspected by your
Toyota dealer immediately. (In this
situation, the hybrid transmission
will operate in the same manner as
when the shift lever is in D.)
