SECOND
(2):
This position gives you more power but
lower fuel economy. You can use
SECOND
(2)
on hills.
It can help control your speed as you
go
down steep
mountain roads, but then
you
would also want to use
your brakes
off
and on.
NOTICE:
Don’t drive in SECOND
(2)
for more than
25
miles
(40
km)
at speeds over
55
mph
(88
kmk),
or you
can damage your transaxle. Use DRIVE
(D)
or
THIRD
(3)
as
much as possible.
Don’t shift into SECOND
(2)
unless you are going
slower than
65
mph
(105
km/h),
or you can
damage your engine.
FIRST
(1):
This position gives you even more power
(but lower fuel economy) than
SECOND
(2).
You can
use it on very steep hills, or in deep snow or mud. If the
shift lever is put
in
FIRST
(l),
the transaxle won’t shift
into first gear until the vehicle
is
going slowly enough.
NOTICE:
If your front wheels can’t rotate, don’t try to
drive. This might happen if you were stuck in
very deep sand or mud or were up against a solid
object. You could damage your transaxle. Also, if
you stop when going uphill, don’t hold your
vehicle there with only the accelerator pedal. This
could overheat and damage the transaxle. Use
your brakes or shift into
PARK
(P)
to hold your
vehicle in position on
a
hill.
