Changing shift ranges in S mode
To enter S mode, shift the shift lever to the S position. The shift
range can then be selected by operating the “-” and “+” shift pad-
dle switches (if equipped) or the shift lever. Changing the shift
range allows restriction of the upper limit of the gears to be used,
preventing unnecessary upshifting and enabling the level of engine
braking force to be selected.
Higher shift range
Lower shift range
The selected shift range, from 1
to 6, will be displayed in the
meter cluster.
The initial shift range in S mode is automatically set to 5 or 4
according to vehicle speed. However, the initial shift range may be
set to 3 or 2 if the AI-SHIFT has operated while the shift lever was
in the D position.
