4-124
CONTROLS AND INSTRUMENTS
The vehicle normally moves off from a
standstill in second gear. Use the 1st start
mode when you need powerful torque to
start the vehicle, for example, when it is
heavily loaded.
When you press the 1st start switch,
the 1st start mode indicator light comes
on, indicating that the transmission has
changed to 1st gear start mode. Return
the transmission to normal start mode (2nd
start mode) by pressing the 1st start switch
again.
1st Start Mode
CAUTION
The transmission shifts when you press the 1st start switch while the vehicle is
in a stop. Fully depress the brake pedal before pressing the switch and keep
depressing the brake pedal until the shift indicator message changes from
flashing to steady illumination. While the shift indicator is flashing, the gear is
being shifted and the creeping force does not work. If you release the brake
pedal while the indication is still flashing, the vehicle may move down on a
slope, causing an accident.
