NOTE

l

If the gears cannot be shifted down when
driving at higher speeds, the gear position
indicator will flash twice to signal that the
gears cannot be shifted down.

l

(2.3-liter engine model)

If the automatic transaxle fluid (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
indicator illumination. This is a normal
function to protect the AT. After the ATF
temperature has decreased, the gear
position indicator illumination turns back
on and driving in manual shift mode is
restored.

NOTE

l

When driving slowly, the gears may not
shift up depending on vehicle speed.

l

In manual shift mode, gears do not shift up
automatically. Don't run the engine with the
tachometer needle in the RED ZONE. If the
tachometer needle enters the RED ZONE,
you may feel engine-braking because the
fuel delivery will be stopped to protect the
engine. However, this does not indicate an
abnormality.

l

Gears may not be shifted from M1 to M2
right after shifting the lever from D to M.
Wait a few seconds and then shift up to M2.

l

When depressing the accelerator fully, the
transaxle will shift to a lower gear,
depending on vehicle speed.
