When selected, the SPORT mode indica-
tor light on the combination meter will turn
on.
To dese lect SPO RT mode, move the
select lever to the D position or select
manual mode.
To subsequently reselect SPORT mode,
move the select lever to the D position
and from there to the manual gate.
In this mode, the transmission shifts up at
higher vehicle speeds and shifts down
more responsively than in normal mode.
Power steering
The power steering system operates only
when the engine is running.
If you lose power steering assist because
the engine stops or the system fails to
function, you can steer but it will take
much more effort.
CAUTION
Do not hold the steering wheel at the
fully locked position left or right for
more than 5 seconds. This may
damage the power steering pump.
NOTE
Right after the engine has been started
and before it has warmed up, you may
hear a noise coming from areas adja-
cent to the power steering pump which
is located at the right-front area of the
engine compartment. This is normal
and does not indicate a power steering
system problem.
