416 STARTING AND OPERATING
out of PARK (refer to "Brake/Transmission Shift Inter-
lock System" in this section). To drive, move the shift
lever from PARK or NEUTRAL to the DRIVE position.
The electronically-controlled transmission provides a
precise shift schedule. The transmission electronics are
self-calibrating; therefore, the first few shifts on a new
vehicle may be somewhat abrupt. This is a normal
condition, and precision shifts will develop within a few
hundred miles (kilometers).
Only shift from DRIVE to PARK or REVERSE when the
accelerator pedal is released and the vehicle is stopped.
Be sure to keep your foot on the brake pedal when
shifting between these gears.
The transmission shift lever has PARK, REVERSE, NEU-
TRAL, DRIVE, and AutoStick® (-/+) shift positions.
Manual shifts can be made using the AutoStick® shift
control (refer to "AutoStick®" in this section for further
information). Moving the shift lever into the AutoStick®
(+/-) position (below the Drive position) activates
Autostick® mode, providing manual shift control and
displaying the current gear in the instrument cluster. In
AutoStick® mode, tapping the shift lever left (-) or right
(+) will manually select the transmission gear.
