− To shift from second to

first, pull the shift lever towards you,

then shift to the lower gear. This

position locks the transmission in

first gear. By upshifting and

downshifting through 1, 2, and D,

you can operate the transmission

much like a manual transmission

without a clutch pedal.

If you shift into first position when

the vehicle speed is above 28 mph

(45 km/h), the transmission shifts

into second gear first to avoid

sudden engine braking.

If you exceed the maximum speed

for the gear you are in, the engine

speed will enter into the tachometer’s

red zone. If this occurs, you may feel

the engine cut in and out. This is

caused by a limiter in the engine’s

computer controls. The engine will

run normally when you reduce the

rpm below the red zone.

This allows you to move the shift

lever out of Park if the normal

method of pushing on the brake

pedal and pulling the shift lever does

not work.

Set the parking brake.

Make sure the ignition switch is in

the LOCK (0) position.

on the notch of the cover to

remove it.
