When the “S” mode indicator light does
not come on even with the selector lever
moved to the “S” position, there may be a
problem somewhere in the system. Have
your vehicle checked/repaired by your
Toyota dealer as soon as possible. In this
case, you can drive in the same condition
as in the “D” position.
(d) Using engine braking
To use engine braking, you can downshift
the transmission as follows:
D When driving in the “D” position—
Shift the selector lever to “S” position.
When driving in the “5” range within
the “S” position—
Move the selector lever down to the
“−” side to select the “4” range. The
transmission will downshift to fourth
range when the vehicle speed drops
down to or lower than the following
speed, and engine braking will be en-
abled.
