2–10 STARTING AND OPERATING
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
EMERGENCY SHIFTING
PROCEDURE
Your vehicle has a shift lever lock control
system. Before you can shift from park (P),
the ignition must be ON and you must de-
press the brake pedal.
If you cannot shift out of P with the ignition
ON and the brake pedal depressed:
1. Turn ignition off.
2. Pry off the cover.
3. Push the shift lock release lever by in-
serting a proper stick. Then, with the
brake pedal depressed, move the selec-
tor lever to N (neutral).
4. Start engine and shift into the gear you
want.
5. Have your vehicle repaired by
Ssangyong dealer or authorized service
operation as soon as possible.
DRIVING TIPS FOR AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION*
Starting the Car
After starting the engine and before shifting
into a drive range, depress the brake pedal
since the vehicle will otherwise start to
"creep". Never use accelerator and brake
pedals simultaneously.
For normal driving conditions the "D" should
be selected.
If the accelerator pedal is depressed gen-
tly and evenly the transmission will shift
into the fuel-saving higher gears at an early
stage. The drive range needs to be
changed manually only in exceptional
cases. Select "3", "2" and "1" only when
automatic shifting up is to be avoided or if
additional use is to be made of the engine
braking effect.
Return to "D" as soon as conditions permit.
