latched in P (Park). Turn the ignition to the LOCK position and
remove the key whenever you leave your vehicle.

With the gearshift lever in R
(Reverse), the vehicle will move
backward. Always come to a
complete stop before shifting into and out of R (Reverse).

With the gearshift lever in N
(Neutral), the vehicle can be started
and is free to roll. Hold the brake
pedal down while in this gear.
D (Drive) with Overdrive
The normal driving position for the
best fuel economy. Transmission
operates in gears one through four.
D (Drive) without Overdrive
D (Drive) with Overdrive can be
deactivated by pressing the
transmission control switch (TCS)
on the end of the gearshift lever.
The transmission control indicator
light (TCIL) will illuminate in the
instrument cluster.
Transmission operates in gears one through three. D (Drive) without
Overdrive provides more engine braking than D (Drive) with Overdrive
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.
