Parking Brake - Toyota corolla 2004 Owner's Manual

Upshifting too soon or downshifting too
late will cause lugging, and possibly ping-
ing. Regularly revving the engine to maxi-
mum speed in each gear will cause ex-
cessive engine wear and high
consumption.
Maximum allowable speeds
To get on a highway or to pass slower
traffic, maximum acceleration may be nec-
essary. Make sure you observe the follow-
ing maximum allowable speeds in each
gear:
Gear km/h (mph)
1 57 (35)
2 95 (59)
3 139 (86)
4 180 (111)
NOTICE
Do not downshift if you are going
faster than the maximum allowable
speed for the next lower gear.

If it is difficult to shift into reverse, put
the transmission in neutral, release the
clutch pedal momentarily, and then try
fuel
again.
D
When towing a trailer, in order to main-
tain engine braking efficiency, do not
use fifth gear.
CAUTION
Be careful when downshifting on a
slippery surface. Abrupt
could cause the vehicle to spin or
skid.
NOTICE
Make sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before shifting into reverse.
