position switch to change the shift position to P .
• If the automatic P position switching operation selection function is performed operated with the EV system stopped , the automatic P position selection function may not operate . Always perform the operation with the EV system started . * : To keep this state , do not operate
the power switch . If the power switch is operated repeatedly , the power switch will turn off after the shift position has automatically changed to P .
By setting the shift position to D and operating the paddle shift switches , the vehicle can drive with the regenerative braking force fixed when the accelerator pedal is released .
The regenerative braking force can be selected from 4 levels .
By operating the “ -” side of the paddle shift switch , the regenerative braking force can be made stronger than the current one .
By operating the “+” side of the paddle shift switch , the regenerative braking force can be made weaker than the current one .
The regenerative braking power becomes strong as the number
of the arrows of
( regenerative braking power indicator ) on the multi-information display increases .
Selecting the drive mode
■ Drive mode select switch �P . 384
■ “ X-MODE ” �P . 385
How to operation the regenerative braking force selection mode
Paddle shift switch “ - ” Paddle shift switch “+” Indicator
■ How to cancel the regenerative braking force selection mode
In the following conditions , the regenerative braking force selection mode is canceled .
●The shift position is shifted to a position other than D
●The “+” paddle shift switch is pressed and held
● When “ X-MODE ” is activated
●When the “ S PEDAL DRIVE ” is operating
