Automatic Transmission
The automatic transmission simplifies
the handling of the vehicle. The indi­
vidual gears are shifted automatically
dependent upon selector lever posi­
tion, vehicle speed and accelerator
position.
Hint:
When the vehicle is parked or being
worked on with engine running, be sure
to set parking brake and that selector
lever is in position “ P".
Driving:
Shift selector lever to the desired driv­
ing position only when the engine is
idling and the service brake is applied.
Do not release the brake until ready to
drive. The vehicle may otherwise start
creeping when the selector lever is in a
driving position.
Accelerator position
Partial throttle = early upshifting =
normal acceleration
Full throttle = later upshifting =
maximum acceleration
Depressing the accelerator beyond full
throttle to kickdown position means
downshifting to the next lower gear and
thus maximum acceleration. If you
ease up on the accelerator after having
attained the desired speed, the trans­
mission will shift up again.
Selector lever positions
The automatic gear shifting process
can be adapted to specific operating
conditions by means of the selector
lever.
“ P” Parking lock.
The parking lock is an additional
safeguard when parking the ve­
hicle. Engage only with the car
stopped.
“ R" Reverse gear.
Shift reverse gear only with the
car stopped.
