Driving your vehicle
Automatic transaxle operation
For  smooth  operation,  depress  the
brake  pedal  when  shifting   from  N
(Neutral)  to   a  forward   or  reverse
gear.
CAUTION
The
highly
efficient
automatic
•  To   avoid   damage    to   your
transaxle,  do   not  accelerate
the  engine  in R  (Reverse)  or
any forward gear position with
the brakes on.
When stopped on an upgrade,
do  not  hold  the  vehicle  sta-
tionary   with   engine   power.
Use  the service  brake  or  the
parking brake.
transaxle has  6 forward speeds  and
one  reverse  speed.  The   individual
speeds  are  selected   automatically,
depending on the position of the shift
lever.
WARNING - Automatic
transaxle
Always check the surrounding
areas  near   your  vehicle   for
people,   especially   children,
before  shifting a  vehicle  into
D (Drive) or R (Reverse).
NOTICE
The first few shifts on a new vehicle,
if the battery has been disconnected,
may be  somewhat abrupt.  This is a
normal  condition,  and  the  shifting
sequence will  adjust after shifts  are
cycled  a   few   times  by   the  TCM
(Transaxle    Control    Module)    or
PCM (Powertrain Control Module).
Do  not shift  from  N (Neutral)
or P (Park) into  D (Drive), or R
(Reverse) when  the  engine is
above idle speed.
Before   leaving   the   driver’s
seat,  always   make  sure  the
shift  lever  is  in  the P  (Park)
position; then set  the parking
brake    fully   and    shut    the
engine  off.   Unexpected  and
sudden
vehicle    movement
can occur if these precautions
are  not followed  in the  order
identified.
Do  not use  the engine  brake
(shifting  from a  high  gear  to
lower  gear)   rapidly  on   slip-
pery  roads. The  vehicle  may
slip causing an accident.
