If you exceed the maximum speed

for the gear you are in, the engine

speed will enter into the tachometer’s

red zone. If this occurs, you may feel

the engine cut in and out. This is

caused by a limiter in the engine’s

computer controls. The engine will

run normally when you reduce the

rpm below the red zone.

Make sure the ignition switch is in

the LOCK (0) position.

Set the parking brake.

Before downshifting, make sure the

engine will not go into the

tachometer’s red zone.

This allows you to move the shift

lever out of Park if the normal

method of pushing on the brake

pedal does not work.

This position is

similar to D, except only the first

three gears are selected. Use D

when towing a trailer in hilly terrain,

or to provide engine braking when

going down a steep hill. D can also

keep the transmission from cycling

between third, fourth, and fifth gears

in stop-and-go driving.

ForfasteraccelerationwheninD or

D, you can get the transmission to

automatically downshift by pushing

the accelerator pedal to the floor.

The transmission will shift down one,

two, or three gears, depending on

your speed.

To release the reverse lockout, make

sure the ignition switch is in the

ACCESSORY(I) position.
