4-2. Driving procedures
LS460/LS460L_U (OM50D48U)
To drive using temporary shift range selection, operate the “-” or “+” pad-
dle shift switch while the shift lever is in the D position.
Changing the shift range allows restriction of the highest gear, preventing
unnecessary upshifting and enabling the level of engine braking force to
be selected.
When the “-” paddle shift switch is operated, the shift range is downshifted to a
range that enables engine braking force that is suitable to driving conditions.

Downshifting
The selected shift range, from D1 to
D8, will be displayed in the meter.
To return to normal D position driving,
the “+” paddle shift switch must be
held down for a period of time.
■ Shift ranges and their functions
A lower shift range will provide greater engine braking forces than a higher shift
range.
