Driving and operating
Kickdown
For faster acceleration press the
accelerator pedal all the way down
and hold. The transmission shifts to a
lower gear depending on the engine
speed.
Overdrive off
The fourth gear of your automatic
transmission is an overdrive.
To cancel the overdrive function,
press the overdrive button, and the O/
D OFF indicator in the warning telltale
box will be ON.
The O/D OFF function can be used
when undesirable shifting to fourth
gear happens such as on a long uphill
gradient.
Note
In normal driving conditions, drive
with the overdrive function activated
for fuel economy.
Fault
In the event of a fault, the malfunction
indicator light or automatic
transmission warning light
illuminates. The transmission no
longer shifts automatically nor
manually because it is locked in a
certain gear.
Have the cause of the fault remedied
by a workshop.
Interruption of power
supply
In the event of an interruption of
power supply, the selector lever
cannot be moved out of the P
position.
If the battery is discharged, start the
vehicle using jump leads.
If the battery is not the cause of the
fault, release selector lever and
remove ignition key from ignition lock.
