Automatic transmission
Aspring loaded catch built into the handle of
the gear selector lever restricts movement of
the lever, therebypreventing inadvertent gear
selection. The catch has two pressures:
•
the first pressure enables gear changes to
be made within a single range of gears
(High range OR Low range).
AUTOMATICTRANSMISSION
Vehicles with automatic transmission are
equipped with an ’H-gate’gear selector
mechanism. This combines the operating
mechanism of both the main gearboxand the
transfer gears, and enables the gear selector
positions for both the high and low gear
ranges to be located side by side.
•
the second pressure enables the selector
to be moved from one range of gears to
another (ie. from High TOLow).
NOTE: Gear selection between ’D’and ’3’
(High range) or ’4’and ’3’(Low range) may be
made without pressing the catch.
Gear selector lever
HIGHRANGEGEARS
Move the selector lever forward or back along
the driver’s side of the ’H’to select the high
range of gears. Similarly, by moving the lever
to the passenger side, the low range can be
selected instead. The ’H-gate’illumination is
colour coded to identifythe two ranges: high
range illumination is green and low range is
amber.
Use the high range for road driving and also
for off-road driving across dry, levelterrain.
The message centre will momentarilydisplay
’HIGH’as soon as High range is selected, and
then displaythe gear selected (eg. ’3’).
WARNING
DONOTattempt to change to LOWrange
gears for normal road driving.
