Goes Off.
6-Speed (4-speed + overdrive) automatic
change (Overdrive ON).
Use under normal driving conditions.
Comes On.
4-speed automatic change, but no change to
overdrive (overdrive OFF).
Used when a light engine brake is required.
Doing so will reduce the number of gear
changes making the ride smoother on roads
that have many hills.
When the automatic transmission
fluid is cold:
During cold weather, the
transmission may not shift to the 5th
or 6th gear (overdrive) until the
engine warms up.
Even if the engine is stopped with
the overdrive OFF, the overdrive will
be ON the next time the engine is
started.
Brakes
Antilock Brake
System (ABS)
Wheels may be locked and slip
during sudden braking or braking on
a slippery road surface such as a
snowy road. ABS is a device to
prevent the wheels from locking by
detecting a slippery condition during
braking and securing the directional
stability and handling stability of the
vehicle. ABS only assists in limited
road conditions and will not prevent
an accident if you exceed safe
driving speeds for road conditions.
Always drive safely.
{
Warning
The braking distance on slippery
road surfaces is longer than that
on a normal dry paved road even
with an ABS-equipped vehicle. In
addition the braking distance can
be slightly longer in deep snow
and on a gravel road when ABS
is activated. Therefore, always
keep in mind the road condition
and tire condition (type of tires
and worn condition), observe safe
driving habits and drive the
vehicle while keeping a proper
distance between vehicles.
