FIRST (1): This position gives you even
more power (but lower fuel economy)
than SECOND. You can use it on very
steep hills, or in deep snow or mud. If the
selector lever is put in FIRST, the
transaxle won't downshift into first gear
until the vehicle is going slowly enough.
NOTICE:
If your front wheels can't rotate,
don't try to drive. This might
happen if you were stuck in very
deep sand or mud or were up
against a solid object. You could
damage your transaxle.
Also, if you stop when going uphill,
don't hold your vehicle there with
only the accelerator pedal. This
could overheat and damage the
transaxle. Use your brakes to hold
your vehicle in position on a hill.
Forward Gears
(Four Speed)
AUTOMATIC OVERDRIVE (D): This
position is for normal driving with the
four speed automatic transaxle. If you
need more power for passing, and you're:
Going less than about 35 mph
(55 kmh), push your accelerator pedal
about halfway down.
Going about 35 mph (55 km/h) or
more, push the accelerator all the way
down.
The transaxle will automatically shift
down to the next gear and provide more
power.
