Driving

The manual transmission has a lockout mechanism that stops you from accidentally 
shifting into 

(

R

 from a forward gear while the vehicle is moving above a certain 

speed.

If you cannot shift to 

(

R

 when the vehicle is stopped, do the following:

1.

Depress the clutch pedal, move the shift 
lever all the way to the left, and shift to 

(

R

.

2.

If you still cannot shift into 

(

R

, apply the 

parking brake, and turn the ignition switch 
to ACCESSORY

Keep depressing the clutch pedal and start 
the engine.

Have the vehicle checked by a dealer if you 
have to go through this procedure repeatedly.

Auto Idle Stop

To help maximise fuel economy, the engine automatically stops when the vehicle 
comes to a stop, depending on environmental and vehicle operating conditions. The 
indicator (green) comes on at this time. The engine then restarts once the vehicle is 
about to move again, depending on environmental and vehicle conditions, and the 
indicator (green) goes off.

Auto Idle Stop

The 12-volt battery installed in this vehicle is 
specifically designed for a model with Auto Idle Stop.
Using a 12-volt battery other than this specified type 
may shorten the 12-volt battery life, and prevent 
Auto Idle Stop from activating. If you need to replace 
the 12-volt battery, make sure to select the specified 
type. Ask a dealer for more details.

Adjustable Speed Limiter

Driving

Adjustable Speed Limiter

This system enables you to set a maximum speed that cannot be exceeded even if 
you are depressing the accelerator pedal.
The vehicle speed limit can be set from about 30 km/h (18 mph) to about 250 km/h 
(156 mph).

Adjustable Speed Limiter

The adjustable speed limiter may not hold the set 
speed limit when driving downhill. If this occurs, slow 
down by depressing the brake pedal.

When not using the adjustable speed limiter:
Turn off the adjustable speed limiter by pressing the 

MAIN

 button.

You cannot use the adjustable speed limiter and the 
adaptive cruise control (ACC)

It is always your responsibility to adjust the 
vehicle speed to obey the actual speed 
limit, and safely operate the vehicle.
