Intelligent Transmission
These are intelligent Manual Transmission (iMT) Indicator symbols found only in cars with a manual transmission. iMT controls the engine speed to suit the driver’s operation of the clutch pedal and shift lever. This helps the driver shift gears more smoothly. Further, when the clutch pedal is operated, the iMT helps reduce shift shock, allowing for lighter shift operations when driving on a winding road or incline.
- Before moving on, is these truly your symbols??
- If not, you can return to our main Text Symbols page and scan again!
When activated the iMT indicator will illuminate in green. The iMT system can be turned off at any time. iMT will not function if the clutch is not fully depressed or fully released, such as a foot being rested on the clutch pedal, which is never a good idea.
If the iMT indicator is seen in yellow/amber iMT may be temporarily unavailable or malfunctioning. Have the vehicle serviced by a qualified service shop.
