Driving with a 4–speed automatic transaxle
Your automatic overdrive transaxle provides fully automatic operation in

For manual control start in 1 (First) and then shift manually.

then move gearshift lever out of P (Park).
Hold the brake pedal down while you move the gearshift lever
from P (Park) to another position. If you do not hold the brake
pedal down, your vehicle may move unexpectedly and injure someone.
