(g) Backing up
1. Bring the vehicle to a complete stop.

shift the selector lever to the "P" posi-
tion.

lever into "P" position under any cir-

(i) Good driving practice
"
If the transmission repeatedly shifts up
and down between fourth gear and ov-
erdrive when climbing a gentle slope,
the overdrive should be turned off. Be
sure to turn the switch on immediately
afterward.
"
When towing a trailer, in order to main-
tain engine braking efficiency, do not
use overdrive.
CAUTION
Always keep your foot on the brake
pedal while stopped with the engine
running. This prevents the vehicle
from creeping.
NOTICE
Always use the brake pedal or the
parking brake to hold the vehicle on
an upgrade. Do not attempt to hold
the vehicle using the accelerator ped-
al, as this can cause the transmission
to overheat.
