Driving your vehicle Automatic transmission
僅 The risk of rollover is greatly
increased if you lose control of your
vehicle at highway speeds.
僅 Loss of control often occurs if two or
more wheels drop off the roadway
and the driver oversteers to reenter
the roadway.
僅 In the event your vehicle leaves the
roadway, do not steer sharply.
Instead, slow down before pulling
back into the travel lanes.
僅 Never exceed posted speed limits.

The automatic transmission has 8(or 6)
forward speeds and one reverse speed.
The individual speeds are selected auto
-
matically, depending on the position of
the shift lever.
The first few shifts on a new vehicle, if
the battery has been disconnected, may
be somewhat abrupt. This is a normal
condition, and the shifting sequence will
adjust after shifts are cycled a few times
by the TCM (Transmission Control Mod
-
ule) or PCM (Powertrain Control Mod
-
ule).
For smooth operation, depress the brake
pedal when shifting from N (Neutral) to
a forward or reverse gear.
