Help to drive cvt

[Victors]

Hi I have just bought a 2006 Yaris automatic. I now find it is not like my normal automatic Atoz I have driven for years. I am really struggling sorting it out. Can a yone give me easy instructions how to use the gear leaver - what are the + and _for. At the moment I am just using the R and E to drive. My big problem is going up inclines. Thanks for any help

You don't have a CVT, you have a "Multimode Manual Transmission"

The gear box is semi auto, the Plus and Minus is to change gears like a manual but without a clutch otherwise drive it like an auto D - Drive, N - Neutral, R - Reverse

if its slowing down going up hills but the revs are still the same the clutch maybe slipping and need replacing and the gearbox reprogramming

Thanks for the helpful Ino. When should the transmission oil be changed?
