SHIFT PATTERNSTwo shift patterns are pre-stored in the control unit of this
transaxle. One is the power pattern (for more powerful
performance), and the other is the economy pattern (for
improved fuel consumption and quieter operation).
The driver can select and switch to the desired pattern by using
the power/economy select switch on the center
Iconsole.The solid lines shown in these shift patterns indicate up-shifts,
and the broken lines indicate down-shifts. The reason why
there is a difference between the shift points for upshifts and
for down-shifts is so that up-shifts and down-shifts will not
occur frequently when driving at a speed in the vicinity of the
shift point.
When the vehicle is stopped, there is a shift to 2nd gear in
order to obtain a suitable “creeping”, but when the accelerator
pedal is then depressed the vehicle starts off in 1st gear.
