CAUTION:
{
It can be dangerous to get out of your vehicle
without the parking brake firmly set. Your
vehicle can roll. If you have left the engine
running, the vehicle can move suddenly. You
or others could be injured. To be sure your
vehicle will not move, even when you are on
fairly level ground, always set the parking
brake.
CAUTION:
{
Shifting into a drive gear while your engine is
running at high speed is dangerous. Unless
your foot is firmly on the brake pedal, your
vehicle could move very rapidly. You could
lose control and hit people or objects. Do not
shift into a drive gear while your engine is
running at high speed.
Overdrive Defeat
If your vehicle has this feature, you can select not to
shift up to fifth gear. This is useful when towing or under
a heavy load.
Press the switch to limit the transmission to fourth gear.
This will allow for fewer downshifts while pulling a
trailer or under a heavy load. The indicator light in the
switch will come on whenever overdrive defeat is active.
The overdrive defeat
switch is located in the
instrument panel to
the right of the steering
column.
