NOTE
If the automatic transmission
fluid
(ATF) temperature becomes too high, the mode
will not switch to manual shift mode. In addition, if the ATF temperature becomes
too high while in manual shift mode, the mode may be canceled. If the mode is
switched to manual shift mode again, it is necessary to operate the steering shift
switches.
When fully depressing the accelerator pedal even while in manual mode, the
transmission kicks down, but it does not kick down while the Traction Control
System (TCS) is turned
off.
However, if the vehicle is continuously driven at a high
rpm, the gears may automatically shift up to protect the engine.
