Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine NEUTRAL (N): In this position, the engine doesn’t
connect with the wheels.
To restart when you’re
already moving, use
NEUTRAL (N) only. Also, use
NEUTRAL (N) when your vehicle is being towed.
A CAUTION:
Shifting out of PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N)
while your engine is “racing” (running at high
speed)
is dangerous. IJnless your foot is firmly on
the brake pedal, your vehicle could move very
rapidly. You could lose control and hit people
or objects. Don’t shift out of
PARK (P) or
NEUTRAL (N) while your engine is racing.
NOTICE:
Damage to your transaxle caused by shifting out
of PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N) with the engine
racing isn’t covered
by your warranty.
OVERDRIVE (a)): This position is for normal driving.
If you need more power for passing, and you’re:
0 Going less than 35 mph (155 kmh), push the
accelerator pedal about halfway down.
0 Going about 35 mph (55 km/h) or more, push the
accelerator all the way down.
The transaxle will shift down to the next gear and
have more power.
NOTICE:
~~~ ~~ ~-
If your vehicle seems to start up rather slowly, or
if it doesn’t seem to shift gears as you accelerate,
something may be wrong with
a transaxle system
sensor.
If you drive very far that way, your
vehicle can be damaged. So if this happens, have
your vehicle serviced right
away. Until then, you
can use SECOND (2) when you are driving less
than
35 mph (55 km/h) and OVERDRIVE (GO)
for higher speeds.
