Maneuvering
When alternating between forward and re-
verse drive (for instance, while maneuvering
the car into a tight parking space), only shift
into Reverse or Drive when the car has come
to a full stop and the engine is running at idle
speed.
Stuck in snow, mud or sand
When alternating between Drive and Reverse
in an effort to free the vehicle, depress the ac-
celerator pedal lightly while the transmission
is in gear, and release the accelerator pedal
while shifting. Do not race the engine and avoid
spinning the wheels.
Do not repeat "rocking" back and forth with
wheels spinning at high engine speed and
heavy throttle, as serious damage may be
caused in the automatic transmission and
other critical parts.
If you cannot free the vehicle after a few "rock-
ing" attempts, call for help or a tow truck.
Accelerator Pedal
For good fuel economy we recommend smooth
and even acceleration. Very fast, racy driving,
alternating between full throttle and hard brak-
ing, raises the fuel consumption considerably.
Also, tires and brake linings wear faster. It is
more economical to drive smoothly and at a
fairly constant speed.
Accelerator "Kickdown"
When depressing the accelerator pedal you
will find resistance at the throttle position. By
applying greater pressure the pedal can be
pushed beyond this point to the kickdown po-
sition. The transmission will now shift automat-
ically into the next lower gear to give you max-
imum acceleration, and only shift up again
after the engine has reached maximum speed
in that particular gear.
Be careful when using the kickdown on
slippery roads. Rapid acceleration may
cause skidding.
Please observe the following when applying
the accelerator kickdown:
With the selector lever in D, you can apply the
kickdown to make the transmission shift down
into third gear when driving below 120 mph or
195 km/h, into second gear when driving be-
low 70 mph or 115 km/h and down to first gear
when driving below 25 mph or 40 km/h.
With the selector lever in "3", you can apply
the kickdown to make the transmission shift
down into the second gear when driving below
70 mph or 115 km/h and into first gear when
driving below 25 mph or 40 km/h.
With the selector lever in "2", you can apply
the kickdown to make the transmission shift
down into first gear when driving below 25 mph
or 40 km/h.
As soon as you release the pedal from the
kickdown position the next higher gear is auto-
matically engaged.
Please observe all local and national speed
limits.
