Shifting the Automatic (cont'd)
2-2nd
Use 2nd gear for increased engine braking when driving downhill,
and increased power when driving uphill; also for driving on slippery
roads, and freeing the car from mud or sand, where 1st gear could
provide too much power and cause skidding or wheelspin.
The maximum recommended speed in 2nd gear is 69 mph (110 km/h).
1-1st
This position is to be used when stronger engine braking is needed.
The maximum recommended speed in 1st gear is 31 mph (50 km/h).
R-Reverse
CAUTION: Shift into or out of reverse only after the car has come
to a complete stop; the transmission may be damaged if you shift
while the car is moving.
P-Park
CAUTION: Use this position when starting the engine, or when
parking. Shift into Park only when the car is COMPLETELY stopped.
N-Neutral
Use when starting the engine or during prolonged idling in traffic.
