File:10fcdrt.ex Update:Mon Jan 22 15:59:33 1996 [DR06802(ALL)01/95] N(Neutral) * [DR06804(ALL)01/95] With the gearshift in the N (Neutral) position, * the vehicle can be started and is free to roll. Hold the brake pedal down while in this position. % [DR06805(ALL)01/95] Driving * % [DR06825(ALL)05/95] When to use D (Overdrive) * [DR06830(ALL)11/94] D(Overdrive) is the usual driving position for * an automatic overdrive transaxle. It automatically upshifts or downshifts as the vehicle speeds or slows. [DR06835(ALL)11/94] However, D (Overdrive) also shifts into a fourth * gear — an overdrive gear — when your vehicle cruises at a consistent speed for any length of time. This fourth gear will increase your fuel economy when you travel at cruising speeds. [DR07025(ALL)04/95] When to use D (O/D OFF) [DR07050(ALL)12/95] You will notice that there is only one drive position on your gearshift indicator (instead of Drive and Overdrive). However, you will find a switch labeled O/D located on the gearshift lever. Push in the switch and the O/D OFF light in the instrument cluster will illuminate. With the O/D OFF light illuminated, the transaxle will operate in first, second and third gears and will not shift into fourth gear. Operating in D (O/D OFF) eliminates the excessive shifting between third and fourth gears that your vehicle sometimes does when you are traveling through hilly terrain in D (Overdrive). It also provides more engine braking than D (Overdrive) for descending hills or city driving. [DR07075(ALL)04/95] To return the transaxle to the normal Overdrive operation, press the O/D OFF switch again. Use this switch to select Overdrive or D (O/D OFF) whenever you drive your vehicle. 199
