Drive 4 (Drive); 3 (Third) - Lincoln LS 2002 Owner's Manual

Drive 4 (Drive)

Transmission operates in gears one
through four. Drive 4 (Drive)
provides engine braking in 4th gear
and is useful when:
• driving with a heavy load.
• towing a trailer up or down steep
hills.
• additional engine downhill
braking is desired. If towing a
trailer, refer to Driving while
you tow in the Trailer Towing
section of this chapter.
Upshifts into Overdrive can be made
by shifting to D5. Selecting 4
(Drive) at higher speeds causes the transmission to shift to 4th gear.
Selecting D4 from lower speeds will cause the transmission to upshift at
the proper speed.

3 (Third)

Transmission operates in third gear
only. Selecting 3 (Third) provides
engine braking.
Upshifts can be made by shifting to
4 (Drive) or 5 (Overdrive). Selecting
3 (Third) at higher speeds causes
the transmission to shift to a lower
gear, and will shift to 3 (Third) after
vehicle decelerates to the proper
speed.
