Proced ures for driving you r vehicle will vary

“transm ission.” We use transaxle becau se it is a
more accu rate term for vehicles that have
front-w heel drive.
Your vehicle will have one of the follow ing
typ es of transaxles:
❑an au tom atic overd rive transaxle, or
❑a manu al transaxle.
Your vehicle is equ ipped with an Electronic
Engine Control Mod ule that limits engine speed s
with a cut-ou t mod e to prom ote durability.
