DRIVING WITH AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION
Moving off
With the engine idling and the
brake pedal depressed, move the
selector lever to one of the driving
positions. Release the brakes. The
vehicle will start to move slowly in
the selected direction. Depress the
accelerator pedal to increase speed.
It is not possible to tow
start or push start a vehicle
fitted with automatic
transmission. Use jump leads
attached to a booster battery.
Moving off in sand, mud and
snow
If the driving wheels are stuck, try
to rock the vehicle free by driving
forwards and backwards. To do
this, move the selector lever
alternately to
D
and
R
and depress
the accelerator as little as possible.
To increase the effect, move the
selector lever to
R
while the vehicle
is still moving forward and vice
versa.
To avoid excessive wear on the
transmission when shifting between
forward and reverse (rocking) keep
the engine speed as low as possible.
As an exception, position
2
may be
used for initial drive-off on icy or
snowy road surfaces.
