Paddle shifter (manual shift mode)

2C_PaddleShift

The paddle shifter is available when the shift lever/dial is in the D(Drive) position or the manual shift mode.

Paddle Shifter doesn’t work at low vehicle speed.

Pull the [+] or [-] paddle shifter once to shift up or down one gear and the system changes from automatic shift mode to manual shift mode.

To change back to automatic shift mode from manual shift mode, do one of the followings:

• Pull and hold the [+] paddle shifter for more than one second.

• Change the shift lever from D(Drive) to manual gate and return it to D Position again in the shift lever type. In the rotary gear shift dial type, rotate the dial to D position.

The manual shift mode also changes back to automatic shift mode in one of following situations:

• When the accelerator pedal is gently depressed for more than 6 seconds while driving (Manual Mode is maintained in SPORT mode as drive mode).

• When the vehicle stops.

With shift lever in the manual shift mode

Pull the [+] or [-] paddle shifter once to shift up or down one gear.

When pulling the [-] paddle shifter over a certain time (0.5 second) after taking driver’s foot off the accelerator pedal, the transmission would be downshifted to allowable minimum gear. If the [-] paddle shifter is operated over a certain time while the brake pedal is applied, an additional downshift could be occurred.
