Automatic Transmission
Second (2) This position locks
the transmission in second gear. It
does not downshift to first gear
when you come to a stop. Second
gives you more power when climbing,
and increased engine braking when
going down steep hills, Use second
gear when starting out on a slippery
surface or in deep snow. It will help
reduce wheelspin.
First (1) With the lever in this
position, the transmission locks in
First gear.
If you shift into First position when
the car speed exceeds 31 mph (50
km/h), the transmission shifts into
Second gear first to avoid the
application of the sudden engine
brake.
Engine Speed Limiter
If you exceed the maximum speed
for the gear you are in, the engine
speed will enter into the tachometer's
red zone. If this occurs, you may feel
the engine cut in and out. This is
caused by a limiter in the engine's
computer controls. The engine will
run normally when you reduce the
RPM below the red zone.
