Indications

1. Manual shift mode indication
2. Gear position indication

Manual shift mode indication

In manual shift mode, the “M” of the
shift position indication in the
instrument panel illuminates.

Gear position indication

The numeral for the selected gear
illuminates.
 

NOTE



If the gears cannot be shifted down
when driving at higher speeds, the
gear position indication will flash
twice to signal that the gears cannot
be shifted down (to protect the
transmission).



If the automatic transmission fluid
(ATF) temperature becomes too
high, there is the possibility that the
transmission will switch to automatic
shift mode, canceling manual shift
mode and turning off the gear
position indication illumination. This
is a normal function to protect the
AT. After the ATF temperature has
decreased, the gear position
indication illumination turns back on
and driving in manual shift mode is
restored.
