When  frequ ent transaxle   shifting  occurs  while  using  the
DRIVE/ OVERDRIVE  range,  such as  when  operating  the
vehicle  und er heavy  load ing  cond itions  (in hilly  terrain,
traveling   into strong   head  wind s, or  while  tow ing trail-
ers), use  the  [3] range.
[1] Low
This range  shou ld  be used  for maxim um  engine  braking
when  descend  ing  steep  grad es.  In this  range,   up  shifts
will occur  only to  prevent  engine  over speed  while  down
shifts  from  [2] to [1] will  occur  as early  as possible.
[3]
DRIVE
AUTOSTICK — IF EQUIPPED
This range  eliminates  shifts  into OVERDRIVE.  The trans-
axle  will  operate  norm ally  in  first  and  second  while  in
this  range.
AUTOSTICK   is  a  driver-interactive     transm ission   that
offers  manu al  gear   shifting   capability   to  provid e  you
with  more control.  AUTOSTICK  allow s you to  maxim ize  5
engine    braking,    eliminate    und esirable   upshifts     and
downshifts,    and  improve   overall   vehicle  perform  ance.
This  system   can  also   provid e  you   with  more   control
during   passing,   city  driving,   cold  slippery    cond itions,
mountain   driving,  trailer  tow ing,  and  many  other  situ a-
tions.
NOTE:    Using the  [3] range  while  operating   the  vehicle
und er  heavy  operating   cond itions  will  improve   perfor-
mance,  fuel econom y, and  extend  transaxle  life by  red uc-
ing  excessive  shifting  and  heat  build  up.
Use  the   [3]  range   when   descend  ing  steep   grad es  to
prevent  brake  system   distress.
