Automatic Transmission
the brake until ready to drive. The
vehicle may otherwise start creeping
when the selector  lever is in drive or
reverse position.
Accelerator position
The automatic transmission
selects individual gears auto-
matically, dependent upon
Partial throttle  = early upshifting  =
normal acceleration
Warning!
Full throttle  = later  upshifting  =
rapid acceleration
Selector lever position
Accelerator position
Vehicle speed
It is dangerous to shift the selector
lever out of "P" or "N" if the engine
speed is higher than idle speed. If
your foot is not on the brake pedal,
the car could accelerate quickly
forward or in reverse. You could lose
control of the car and hit someone or
something. Only shift into gear when
the engine is idling normally and
when your right foot is firmly on the
brake pedal.
Kickdown (depressing  the accelerator
beyond full throttle)  = downshifting
to next lowest gear = maximum
acceleration.  Once the desired  speed
is attained, ease up on the accelerator
- the transmission shifts  up again.
Important!
When parking the car or before
working on the vehicle  with the
engine running, firmly depress the
parking brake pedal and  shift the
selector lever  into "P".
Driving
Important!
The selector lever is automatically
locked while  in position "P".  To
move the selector lever out of position
"P", the service  brake pedal must be
firmly depressed before the shift lock
will release.
After selecting any driving position
from "N"  or "P", wait a  moment to
allow the gear  to fully engage before
accelerating, especially  when the
engine is cold.
Shift selector lever to the desired
driving position only  when the engine
is idling and the  service brake is
applied. Do not release
