Overdrive — column mounted gearshift with O/D off switch

The Overdrive position with the O/D

OFF switch not depressed is the

normal driving position for this

automatic overdrive transaxle. When

your vehicle cruises at a constant

speed for any length of time, this

fourth gear will increase your fuel

economy.

Overdrive may not be appropriate

for certain terrains. If the transaxle

shifts back and forth between third

and fourth gears while you are

driving hilly roads or if your vehicle

requires additional power for

climbing hills, press the O/D OFF

switch.

Each time the vehicle is started, the transaxle will automatically return

to normal overdrive mode.

When to use D (Drive) or press the O/D OFF switch

You will notice that there is only one

drive position on your gearshift

indicator (instead of Drive and

Overdrive). However, you will find a

control labeled OVERDRIVE located

on the gearshift lever. Push in the

switch and the O/D OFF light in the

instrument cluster will illuminate.

With the O/D OFF light illuminated,

the transaxle will operate in first,

second and third gears and will not

shift into fourth gear. Operating in D

(O/D OFF) provides more engine

braking than Overdrive for

descending hills or city driving.

To return the transaxle to the normal Overdrive operation, press the O/D

OFF control again. Use this control to select between Overdrive or D

(O/D OFF) whenever you drive your vehicle.
