the vehicle stops, 1st gear is auto-
matically selected.

upshift automatically.

transmission may not make the
requested gear change if the next
gear is outside of the allowable
engine rpm range. The driver must
execute upshifts in accordance with
road conditions, taking care to keep
the engine rpms below the red zone.

tion
