When Driving
Manually shifting up
When driving slowly, the gears may not shift up.
In manual shift mode, do not run the engine with the tachometer needle in
the RED ZONE. When the engine rpm is high, a gear may shift up automat-
ically to protect the engine.
When depressing the accelerator fully, the transaxle will shift to a lower
gear, depending on vehicle speed.
Manually shifting down
When driving at high speeds, the gear may not shift down.
During deceleration, the gear may automatically shift down depending on
vehicle speed.
When depressing the accelerator fully, the transaxle will shift to a lower
gear, depending on vehicle speed.
WARNING
Do not use engine braking on slippery road surfaces or at high speeds
Shifting down while driving on wet, snowy, or frozen roads, or while driving
at high speeds causes sudden engine braking, which is dangerous. The
sudden change in tire speed could cause the tires to skid. This could lead to
loss of vehicle control and an accident.
