When to use j (Overdrive)
[DR05500(ALL)04/95]
j (Overdrive) is the usual driving position for
an automatic overdrive transaxle. It works the
same way D (Drive) works, automatically
upshifting or downshifting as the vehicle speeds
or slows.
[DR05600(ALL)04/95]
However, j (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.

When to use D (Drive)
[DR06000(ALL)04/95]
D (Drive) eliminates the excessive shifting
between third and fourth gears that your vehicle
sometimes does when you are traveling through
hilly terrain in j (Overdrive). It also provides
more engine braking than j(Overdrive) for
descending hills or city driving.
