Driving
Understanding the gearshift positions of the 4–speed automatic
transaxle
This vehicle is equipped with an adaptive Transmission Shift Strategy.
Adaptive Shift Strategy offers the optimal transmission operation and shift
quality. When the vehicle’s battery has been disconnected for any type of
service or repair, the transmission will need to relearn the normal shift
strategy parameters, much like having to reset your radio stations when
your vehicle battery has been disconnected. The Adaptive Transmission
Strategy allows the transmission to relearn these operating parameters. This
learning process could take several transmission upshifts and downshifts;
during this learning process, slightly firmer shifts may occur. After this
learning process, normal shift feel and shift scheduling will resume.
