(Overdrive) The normal
driving position for the best fuel
economy. Transmission operates in
gears one through four.
D
(Overdrive) can be deactivated
by pressing the transmission
control switch on the end of the
gearshift lever. The transmission
control indicator light (TCIL)
(OFF) on the end of the gearshift
lever will remain off.
D (Drive) Not shown on the
display. Activate by pressing the
transmission control switch on the
end of the gearshift lever. The
TCIL (OFF) will illuminate on the
gearshift lever. Transmission
operates in gears one through
three. D (Drive) provides more
engine braking than
D
(Overdrive) and is useful
whenever driving conditions (i.e.,
city traffic, hilly terrain, etc.) cause
the transmission to excessively
shift between
D
(Overdrive) and
D (Drive). Also deactivate
D
(Overdrive) when:
driving with a heavy load
towing a trailer up or down
steep hills
additional engine braking is
desired.
To return to
D
(Overdrive)
mode, press the transmission
control switch. The TCIL (OFF)
will no longer be illuminated.
