SHIFT PATTERNS
Two shift patterns are prestored in the control unit of this
transaxle. One is the power pattern (for more powerful perfor-
mance), and the other is the economy pattern (for improved
fuel consumption and quieter operation). The driver can select
and switch to the desired pattern by using the power/economy
select switch on the center console. The solid lines shown
in these shift patterns indicate up-shifts, and the broken lines
indicate down-shifts. The reason why there is a difference
between the shift points for up-shifts and for down-shifts is
so that up-shifts and down-shifts will not occur frequently
when driving at a speed in the vicinity of the shift point.
When the vehicle is stopped, there is a shift to 2nd gear
in order to obtain a suitable "creeping", but when the accelera-
tor pedal is then depressed the vehicle starts off in 1st gear.
