FIRST (1): This position gives you even more power
but lower fuel economy than SECOND (2). You can use
it on very steep hills, or in deep snow or mud. If the
shift lever is put in FIRST (1), the transaxle will not shift
into first gear until the vehicle is going slowly enough.
Notice: Spinning the tires or holding the vehicle in
one place on a hill using only the accelerator
pedal may damage the transaxle. If you are stuck,
do not spin the tires. When stopping on a hill,
use the brakes to hold the vehicle in place.
If there is a malfunction with the automatic transaxle,
the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) or the HOLD
indicator light will turn on or flash. See Malfunction
Indicator Lamp on page 3-36 or Hold Mode Light
on page 3-35.
Have your vehicle fixed as soon as possible.
Hold Mode
If your vehicle’s transaxle has hold mode, you can
select this mode to drive with some characteristics of a
manual transaxle. With hold mode turned on, the
automatic transaxle will stay in a specific gear range.
Press the HOLD button on
the shift lever console to
turn on hold mode.
Press the button again to turn off hold mode, and return
to normal automatic transaxle operation.
While on, the HOLD indicator light on the instrument
panel cluster will light up. See Hold Mode Light on
page 3-35.
