STARTING AND DRIVING
380
(c) Using the “3”, “2” and “L” positions
The “3”, “2” and “L” positions are used for strong engine braking
as described previously.
With the selector lever in “3”, “2” or “L”, you can start the vehicle
in motion as with the lever in “D”.
With the selector lever in “3” or “2”, the vehicle will start in first
gear and automatically shift to second gear.
With the selector lever in “L”, the transmission is engaged in
first gear.
NOTICE
Be careful not to over-rev the engine. Watch the
tachometer to keep engine rpm from going into the
red zone. The approximate maximum allowable
speed for each position is given below for your
reference:
Transmission Transfer
“L” “H”
“3” 53 km/h (33 mph) 136 km/h (85 mph)
“2” 36 km/h (22 mph) 93 km/h (58 mph)
“L” 21 km/h (13 mph) 54 km/h (33 mph)
Do not continue hill climbing or hard towing for a long
time in the “3”, “2” or “L” position. This may cause
severe automatic transmission damage from
overheating. To prevent such damage, “4” position
should be used in hill climbing or hard towing.
