Power Mode - Chevrolet 2004 Tracker Owner's Manual

Power Mode

When you need more power for climbing hills or quicker
acceleration, press the P (power) switch. The POWER
indicator light on the instrument panel cluster will
come on. For normal driving, press the N (normal)
switch. The POWER indicator light will go off.
The power mode delays the automatic transmission shift
points to allow for higher engine speeds in each gear.
The automatic transmission also has the ability to
provide SECOND (2) gear starts for improved traction
on slippery surfaces. The power mode selector
switch must be in the P mode and the transmission shift
lever in SECOND (2), which will remain in SECOND (2)
until you shift the vehicle to DRIVE (D).

A power mode selector
switch is included with the
four-speed automatic
transmission.

stop and it's hard to shift into FIRST (1), put the
shift lever in NEUTRAL and let up on the clutch. Press
the clutch pedal back down. Then shift into FIRST (1).

on the accelerator pedal and shift into SECOND (2).
Then, slowly let up on the clutch pedal as you press the
