NOTICE:
If your vehicle seems to start up rather slowly, or if it seems not
to shift gears as you go faster, something may be wrong with
a
transaxle system sensor. If you drive very far that way, your
vehicle can be damaged. So, if this happens, have your vehicle
serviced right away. Until then, you can use
"2"
(Second Gear)
when you
are
driving less than 35 mph
(56
km/h) and
@
(Overdrive) for higher speeds.
3 (Third Gear)
This is like
@,
but you never go into Overdrive.
Here are some times
you
might choose
"3"
instead of
0:
- When driving on hilly, winding roads
-
When towing a trailer, so there is less shifting between gears
-
When going down a steep hill
2 (Second Gear)
This position gives
you
more power but lower fuel economy. You can
use "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 in
"2"
(Second Gear) for more than
5
miles (8
km),
or at speeds over
55
mph (88 km/h), or you can damage your
transaxle. Use
"@"
or "3"
as
much as possible.
Don't shift into
"2"
unless you are going slower than
65
mph
(105 km/h), or you can damage your engine.
