depending on the engine speed.

accelerator pedal beyond the pressure
point.
The transmission shifts to a lower gear
depending on the engine speed.

Rocking the vehicle free

Rocking the vehicle free by shifting back and
forth between transmission positions

D and

R can help to free a vehicle that has become

stuck in mud or snow. The engine
management system of the vehicle limits
shifting back and forth between transmission
positions

D and R to a maximum speed of

5 mph (9 km/h). To shift back and forth
between transmission positions

move the selector lever up and down beyond
the pressure point.

Working on the vehicle

WARNING

When working on the vehicle, engage the
parking brake and shift the automatic
transmission into park position

P. Otherwise

the vehicle could roll away which could result
in an accident and/or serious personal injury.

When towing a trailer and driving downhill,
shift to the lower gear if the automatic
transmission constantly shifts between
two gears.

Engaging a lower gear and reducing the
speed reduces the risk of the engine
overheating.
