This warning light and chime remind you to
fasten your safety belt. If you do not fasten your
safety belt before the ignition is turned to ON,
the chime will sound for 4 to 8 seconds and the
warning light will illuminate for 1 to 2 minutes,
or until the safety belt is fastened. If you fasten
the safety belt before the ignition is turned to
ON, neither the light nor chime will activate.

[GF06400(ALL)01/96]
To return the transaxle to normal operation (1st
through 4th gears) press the O/D OFF button
again. The O/D OFF button may be used to
cancel Overdrive any time the vehicle is being
driven. Each time your vehicle is started, the
Overdrive system will automatically be in the
normal ªoverdrive onº mode and the light will
not be illuminated.
[GF06500(ALL)03/96]
If the light does not illuminate when the O/D
OFF button is pressed, or if the light flashes
when you are driving, have your vehicle
serviced at the first opportunity. If this
condition persists, damage could occur to the
transaxle.
[GF06600(ALL)01/96]
When to use Drive (D with Overdrive OFF)
[GF06700(ALL)01/96]
In Drive (Overdrive OFF), your vehicle
automatically upshifts or downshifts from 1st
through 4th gears as the vehicle speeds up or
slows down. It also downshifts when you need
extra acceleration to pass or when driving up a
hill.
[GF06800(ALL)01/96]
Selecting Drive (Overdrive OFF) will eliminate
the transaxle's tendency to ªhuntº between third
and fourth gears while driving over hilly terrain.
It also gives your vehicle more engine braking to
slow your vehicle than Overdrive does.
