Shifting the shift lever While the engine switch is in IGNITION ON mode and the brake pedal depressed*, shift the shift lever while pushing the shift release button on the shift knob. Shift the shift lever while pushing the shift release button on the shift knob. Shift the shift lever normally. When shifting the shift lever between P and D, make sure that the vehicle is completely stopped and the brake pedal is depressed. *: For the vehicle be able to be shifted from P, the brake pedal must be depressed before the shift release button is pushed. If the shift release button is pushed first, the shift lock will not be released. Shift position purpose
*1: Shifting to the D position allows the system to select a gear suitable for the driving conditions. Setting the shift lever to the D position is recommended for normal driving. *2: Selecting shift ranges using S mode restricts the upper limit of the possible gear ranges, controls engine braking force, and prevents unnecessary upshifting. Changing shift ranges in S mode When the shift lever is in the S position, the shift lever or paddle shift switches (if equipped) can be operated as follows: Shift lever Paddle shift switches (if equipped)
The initial shift range in S mode is set automatically to 4, 5 or 6 according to vehicle speed. However, the initial shift range may be set to 3 if AI-SHIFT has operated while the shift lever was in the D position. ■ Shift ranges and their functions
A lower shift range will provide greater engine braking forces than a higher shift range. Selecting shift ranges in the D position (vehicles with paddle shift switches) To drive using temporary shift range selection, operate the paddle shift switch. The shift range can then be selected by operating the "-" and "+" paddle shift switches. Changing the shift range allows restriction of the highest gear, preventing upshifting and enabling the level of engine braking force to be selected.
The selected shift range, from 1 to 8, or D will be displayed on the multi-information display. ■Automatic deactivation of shift range selection in the D position (vehicles with paddle shift switches) Shift range selection in the D position will be deactivated in the following situations:
■S mode
■Downshift restriction warning buzzer (S mode or paddle shifting) To help ensure safety and driving performance, downshifting operation may sometimes be restricted. In some circumstances, downshifting may not be possible even when the shift lever or paddle shift switches are operated. (A buzzer will sound twice.) ■When driving with dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed range activated Even when performing the following actions with the intent of enabling engine braking, engine braking will not activate because dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed range will not be canceled.
■Shift lock system The shift lock system is a system to prevent accidental operation of the shift lever in starting. The shift lever can be shifted from P only when the engine switch is in the IGNITION ON mode the brake pedal is depressed and the shift release button is pushed. ■If the shift lever cannot be shifted from P First, check whether the brake pedal is being depressed. If the shift lever cannot be shifted even though the brake pedal is depressed and the shift release button is pushed, there may be a problem with the shift lock system. Have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer immediately. The following steps may be used as an emergency measure to ensure that the shift lever can be shifted. Releasing the shift lock: 1. Set the parking brake. 2. Turn the engine switch off. 3. Depress the brake pedal. 4. Pry the cover up with a flathead screwdriver or equivalent tool. To prevent damage to the cover, cover the tip of the screwdriver with a rag. 5. Press and hold the shift lock override button and then push the button on the shift knob. The shift lever can be shifted while both buttons are pressed. ■If the S indicator does not come on or the D indicator is displayed even after shifting the shift lever to S This may indicate a malfunction in the automatic transmission system. Have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer immediately. (In this situation, the transmission will operate in the same manner as when the shift lever is in D.) ■AI-SHIFT The AI-SHIFT automatically selects the suitable gear according to driver performance and driving conditions. The AI-SHIFT automatically operates when the shift lever is in D. (Shifting the shift lever to the S position or paddle shifting cancels the function.)
Turn signal lever Operating instructions
■Turn signals can be operated when The engine switch is in IGNITION ON mode. ■If the indicator flashes faster than usual Check that a light bulb in the front or rear turn signal lights has not burned out. ■If the turn signals stop flashing before a lane change has been performed Operate the lever again. ■To discontinue flashing of the turn signals during a lane change Operate the lever in the opposite direction. |
