engine braking when descending steep hills.
When downshifting to "L", the transaxle will tem-
porarily remain in second gear until the vehicle
has slowed enough for low gear to engage. Do
not exceed 31 mph (50 km/h) in low gear.

o 2 (Second gear):Use for driving on a slippery road, hill climbing or
engine braking downhill. "2" automatically shifts
between first and second gears.
This means that no shift-up to 3rd gear is per-
formed. However, the shift-up to third gear is
done when the car speed exceeds a certain
value to prevent the engine from over-revving.
Manually move the selector to "D" returning to
normal driving condition.

which means that no gears are engaged. The
engine can be started with the shift lever in "N"
position, although this is not recommended ex-
cept if the engine stalls while the car is moving.

performed. However, the shift-up to 4th gear is
done when the car speed exceeds a certain
