Here are some times you might choose THIRD

(3)

instead of AUTOMATIC OVERDRIVE

(6)

.-I

When driving on hilly, winding roads.

When towing a trailer,

there is less shifting

between gears.

When going down a steep hill.

When driving in no-highway scenarios (i.e. city

streets, etc.)

SECOND

(2):

This position gives you more power but

lower fuel economy than THIRD

(3).

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 drive

SECOND

(2)

for more than

miles

(40

km), or at speeds over

mph

(90

km/h), or you can damage your transaxle.

Use THIRD

(3)

or AUTOMATIC OVERDRIVE (D) as

much as possible. Don’t shift into SECOND

(2)

unless you are going slower than

mph (105 km/h)

or you can damage your engine.

FIRST

(1):

This position gives you even more power

but lower fuel economy than

SECOND

(2). You can use

it on very steep hills, or in deep snow or mud.

the

shift lever is put in FIRST

(l),

the transaxle won’t shift

into first gear until the vehicle is going slowly enough.

Notice:

If your front wheels won’t turn, don’t try to

drive. This might happen

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 overheat and damage the transaxle. Use your

brakes to hold your vehicle in position on

hill.

Parking Brake

set the parking brake,

hold the regular brake

pedal down with your right

foot. Push down the

parking brake pedal with

your left foot.

To release the parking brake, hold the regular brake

pedal down with your right foot and push the parking

brake pedal with your left foot. When you lift your

left foot, the parking brake pedal will follow it

the

released position.
