(b) Normal driving
1. Start the engine as instructed in “How
to start the engine” on page 250 in
Section 3. The transmission must be in
“P” or “N”.
2. With your foot holding down the brake
pedal, shift the selector lever to “D”.
When the lever is in the “D” position, the
automatic transmission system will select
the most suitable gear for running condi-
tions such as normal cruising, hill climb-
ing, etc.
Always use the “D” position for better fuel
economy and quieter driving. In this posi-
tion, shifting into the overdrive gear is
possible. If the engine coolant temperature
is low, the transmission will not shift into
the overdrive gear even in the “D” posi-
tion.
CAUTION
Never put your foot on the accelera-
tor pedal while shifting.
3. Release the parking brake and brake
pedal. Depress the accelerator pedal
slowly for smooth starting.
(c) Driving in “S” mode
You can change the shift range position
in the “S” mode. The shift range posi-
tion can be switched between 5 (fifth
range) and 1 (first range) by moving
the selector lever up to the “+” side or
down to the “
− ” side. The first shift
range position is 4 (fourth range) when
the selector lever is shifted to the “S”
position.
The “S” mode indicator and the shift range
position being used are shown on the in-
strument cluster.
1: Upshift range
2: Downshift range
