Second-Gear Start (Option)
Your vehicle may be quipped with
a
Second-Gear Start
feature. Press 2ND GEAR START to provide more
traction when you are starting on ice or other slippery
surfaces. The 2ND gear light on the cluster will
illuminate when 2nd gear start is selected. The
transmission will be in SECOND (2) gear when the
vehicle begins to move. After starting in SECOND (2)
the vehicle will upshift normally.
This feature is only for improved traction when the road
surface is slippery and is not intended for continuous
use. Always use NORMAL for normal road conditions.
You may press 2ND GEAR START again to turn off this
feature. Whenever you start your vehicle, the
transmission is
in
the NORMAL mode.
Limited-Slip Rear Axle
If you have this feature, your rear axle can give you
additional traction on snow, mud, ice, sand or gravel. It
works like a standard axle most of the time, but when
one of the rear wheels has
no
traction and the other does,
the limited-slip feature will allow the wheel with
traction to move the vehicle.
Parking Brake
To set the parking brake, hold the brake pedal down and
pull up on the parking brake lever. If the ignition is on,
the brake system warning light will come on.
