WARNING!
Never leave the car when the engine is running. If, by mistake, the gear selector is moved from P, the

Driving gears
D (Drive)
D is the normal driving position. Upshifts and downshifts of the forward gears occur automatically and
are governed by accelerator pedal position and vehicle speed.
pg. 46 Automatic transmission (cont.)
2 (intermediate position)
Upshifts and downshifts of first two gears (low and intermediate) occur automatically. No upshift to 3rd
or 4th gear occurs. Position 2 may be used to obtain forced downshift to 2nd gear for increased engine
braking effect.
1 (low position)
If position 1 is selected when driving at high speeds, 2 is engaged first and 1 when the speed has
dropped to approx. 30 mph (50 km/h). NOTE: No upshift can occur once 1 is engaged.
