Shifting The Automatic Transaxle - Pontiac 1994 Grand Am Owner's Manual

Plug it into a normal, grounded
1 10-volt outlet.
NOTICE:
After you've used the coolant
heater, be sure to store the cord as it
was before to keep it away from
moving engine parts. If you don't, it
could be damaged.

How long should you keep the coolant
heater plugged in? The answer depends
on the weather, the kind of oil you have,
and some other things. Instead of trying to
list everything here, we ask that you
contact a Pontiac dealer in the area where
you'll be parking your vehicle. The dealer
can give you the best advice for that
particular area.
Shifting the Automatic
Transaxle
(3 or 4 Speeds)
Your Grand Am may be equipped with a
three speed automatic or a four speed
automatic transaxle. The shift lever is
located on the console between the seats.
There are six different positions for the
shift lever on the three speed automatic
and four speed automatic transaxles.
While PARK (P), REVERSE (R) and
NEUTRAL (N) operate identically for
both transaxles, the forward gear
positions represent different geariirg and
operation. See "Forward Gears (Three
Speed)'' or "Forward Gears (Four Speed)"
