The transmission control indicator

light (TCIL) will illuminate on the

instrument cluster.

Drive

Not shown on the display. Activate by pressing the transmission control

switch on the gearshift lever with the gearshift in the Drive position. The

O/D OFF indicator will illuminate in the instrument cluster. Transmission

operates in gears one through three. Drive provides more engine braking

than Overdrive and is useful when:

• driving with a heavy load.

• towing a trailer up or down steep hills.

• additional engine braking is desired.

If towing a trailer, refer to Driving while you tow in this chapter.

To return to Overdrive mode, press the transmission control switch. The

O/D OFF indicator light will no longer be illuminated.

Each time the vehicle is started, the transmission will automatically

return to normal Overdrive mode.

Every time the vehicle is shut off and restarted, you must press the

transmission control switch to cancel overdrive operation if the Overdrive

mode is not desired.

2 (Second)

Use 2 (Second) to start-up on

slippery roads or to provide

additional engine braking on

downgrades.

1 (First)

Use 1 (Low) to provide maximum

engine braking on steep

downgrades. Upshifts can be made

by shifting to 2 (Second) or to

Overdrive. Selecting 1 (Low) at

higher speeds causes the transmission to shift to a lower gear, and will

shift to 1 (Low) after vehicle decelerates to the proper speed.

Forced Downshifts

To gain acceleration in

(Overdrive) or Drive (O/D OFF) when

passing another vehicle, push the accelerator to the floor. The

transmission will downshift to the appropriate gear: third, second or first

gear.
