7-14
Automatic transmission
WARNING
Do not shift from the “P” or “N” position into the “D”, “3”, “2”,
“1” or “R” position while depressing the accelerator pedal. This
may cause the vehicle to jump forward or backward.
CAUTION
D Shift into the “P” or “R” position only after the vehicle is com-
pletely stopped. Shifting while the vehicle is moving may cause
damage to the transmission.
D Do not race the engine for more than five seconds in any posi-
tion except the “N” or “P” position when the brake is set or the
tires are on blocks. This may cause the automatic transmission
fluid to overheat.
D Avoid shifting from one of the forward driving positions into
the “R” position or vice versa until the vehicle has completely
stopped. Such shifting may cause damage to the transmission.
The automatic transmission is electronically controlled with 4-forward
speeds and 1-reverse speed.
NOTE
Immediately after a disconnected battery is reconnected or ATF (au-
tomatic transmission fluid) is replaced, you may feel that the auto-
matic transmission operation is somewhat unusual.
This results from erasure or invalidation of data which the on-board
computer has collected and stored in memory to allow the transmis-
sion to shift at the most appropriate times for the current condition
of your vehicle. Optimized shifting will be restored as the vehicle
continues to be driven for a while.
