A '''MultiMode manual transmission''' ('''MMT''' or '''M/M'''<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.toyota.co.uk/bv/About_Toyota/glossary/MMT.html |title=MMT - MultiMode manual transmission |___location=UK |publisher=Toyota |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120413143105/http://www.toyota.co.uk/bv/About_Toyota/glossary/MMT.html |archive-date=2012-04-13}}</ref>) is a type of [[
== Operation ==
The Multimode Manual Transmission has the following gears: R, N, E, M+,
* '''R''': R is the reverse gear. It is similar to R in both traditional manual and in fully automatic cars.
* '''N''': N is the neutral gear. It is similar to N in both traditional manual and full automatic.
Line 18 ⟶ 17:
* '''Parking''': Unlike an automatic car, the P gear is absent in a MMT car. The car should be parked in the following fashion. In an up-sloping incline, put the gear to M1, or E, apply handbrake, and switch off the engine. In a down-sloping incline, put the gear to R, apply handbrake, and switch off the engine. On level ground, put the gear to R, apply handbrake, and switch off the engine. R or E/M1 substitute the P function in a full automatic.
* '''Moving off from Park''': The engine can only be started with the gear in N. To start, switch on the car to ON position (this releases the gear lock), depress brake pedal, put the gear to N (from either R or E/M1), and switch on the engine.
* '''L/1 and 2 gears in a full automatic''': The MMT does not provide L/1 and 2 gears as in a full automatic. One action of the MMT system is that it detects the gradient of the slope that the car is situated in. On a down-sloping incline and if the brake pedal is depressed, it automatically selects a lower gear to produce engine brake, which has the equivalent effect of L and 2 gears in a full automatic. L and 2 can also be substituted with E1 and E2 (not available in [[Aygo]]) or M1 and M2 gears in a MMT car. To select E1 or E2, put the gear to E, and use + and - pedal flaps on the steering wheel to override the computer selection. E will change to E1/E2/E3/E4/E5/E6, depending on the gear selected. Downshift to E1 or E2 as appropriate to simulate L and 2 gears in a full automatic. To select M1 or M2, put the gear to M, and use
* '''Kick-down''': In E mode, the [[Automatic transmission#Manually controlled automatic transmissions|kick-down function]] in a full automatic can be similarly activated in an MMT car. Additionally, the kick-down function can be manually activated using the - pedal flap on the [[steering wheel]] in E mode. This overrides the computer setting and E changes to E1/E2/E3/E4/E5/E6. To stop the [[manual override]] under E mode, pull and hold the + flap on the steering wheel, until the E1/E2/E3/E4/E5/E6 changes back to E. Alternatively, wait for the next computer activated gear change.
* '''Reverse''': The car reverses as in an automatic car. To reverse, depress brake pedal, and change the gear to R. Gradually lift off the brake pedal to allow the car to creep backwards. On a down-sloping incline, the creep function, simulated using the slipping clutch, is not sufficient to prevent the car from rolling forward. In this case, the car must not be held still using the accelerator pedal, as the excessive clutch slipping will lead to clutch damage. Handbrake should be instead applied, and the accelerator pedal should be depressed slightly.
