   NOTE

y

  If the gears cannot be shifted down 

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

y

  If the automatic transaxle fl uid (ATF) 

temperature becomes too high, there 
is the possibility that the transaxle 
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 automatic transaxle. After 
the ATF temperature has decreased, the 
gear position indication illumination 
turns back on and driving in manual 
shift mode is restored.

  Shifting

    You can shift gears up and down by 
operating the selector lever or the steering
