Automatic Transmission
MODE SWITCH
‘Manual’ mode
In Low range, with ‘Manual’ mode selected, the
automatic transmission functions as a manual
gearbox requiring the driver to move the
selector lever manually to change gear
(‘D’
= 4th gear). Manual mode will provide
maximum vehicle control and engine braking -
ideal for use in severe off-road conditions. Note
that ‘kick-down’ is disabled and that automatic
downshifts will only occur to prevent the engine
from stalling.
NOTE: ‘Manual’ mode will be cancelled if the
ignition is switching off or the transfer gearbox
is used.
MODE
H2664
In High range press the mode switch to select
‘Sport’ mode (the ‘S’ information light on the
instrument panel will illuminate).
In Low range press the mode switch to select
‘Manual’ mode (the ‘M’ information light will
illuminate).
Press the switch a second time to return the
gearbox to normal operation.
‘
With ‘Sport’ mode selected, the gearbox is
more responsive to accelerator pedal
Sport’ mode
movement - downshifts occur earlier and
upshifts are delayed to make optimum use of
the engine's power while accelerating. Select
‘Sport’ when increased acceleration is required,
or when negotiating long inclines or twisting
roads. Note that driving in ‘Sport’ mode may
increase fuel consumption.
NOTE: If the ignition switch is turned off while
‘Sport’ mode is selected, the vehicle will stay in
‘Sport’ mode when the ignition is next switched
on.
Moving the transfer gearbox to Low range will
de-select ‘Sport’ mode; it will stay de-selected
after moving back to High range.
