THIRD (3): This position is also used for normal
driving, however,
it offers more power and lower fuel
economy than OVERDRIVE
(@).
Here are examples for using THIRD (3 j instead of
OVERDRIVE (@) j:
0 When driving on hilly, winding roads.
0 When towing a trailer. so there is less shifting
between gears.
0 When going down a steep hill.
SECOND (2): This position gives you more power. You
can use SECOND (2) on hills. It can help control your
speed
as you go down steep mountain roads, but then
you would also want to use your brakes off and on.
.__
NOTICE:
Don’t shift into SECOND (2) unless you are going
slower than
65 mph (105 km/h), or you can
damage your engine.
FIRST (1): This position gives you even more power
than SECOND
(2). You can use it on very steep hills,
or in deep snow or mud. (If the shift lever is put in
FIRST (1). the transaxle won’t shift into gear until
the vehicle is
going slowly enough.)
NOTICE:
If your front wheels can’t rotate, don’t try to
drive. This might happen
if you were stuck in
very deep sand or mud or were up against a
solid object. You could damage your transaxle.
Also, if you stop when going uphill, don’t hold
your vehicle there with only the accelerator
pedal. This could cause overheating and damage
the transaxle. Use your brakes
to hold your
vehicle
in position on a hill.

With the full center console, press on the cover, which is
located below the climate control system, to reveal the
front ashtray.

it all the way in and release. It will pop back by itself
when it’s ready to light.
You may also have a lighter
on the back of the center console near the rear seat
air
outlet.
Note that power to the cigarette lighter will shut off
10 minutes after the ignition is turned off. This helps
to prevent battery drainage. For more information,
see “Inadvertent Power Battery Saver” earlier in
this section.
NOTICE:
Don’t hold a cigarette lighter in with your hand
while it
is heating. If you do, it won’t be able to
back away
from the heating element when it’s
ready. That can make it overheat, damaging the
lighter and the heating element.
Swing down the visor to block out glare. It can also be
detached from
the center mount and moved to the side.
