Downshifting increases power going uphill, or
provides engine braking downhill. For best fuel
economy during normal driving conditions, always
drive with the shift lever in the “D” position.
For safety, the engine will not start unless the clutch
pedal is FULLY depressed.
Manual transmission (if equipped)
Overdrive switch
To turn “ON” or “OFF”
Depress the overdrive switch
to choose either three-speed (“OFF”) or four-speed
(“ON”) operation. During normal driving conditions,
always drive with overdrive “ON,” this allows the
transmission to shift automatically into four-speed
operation at higher speeds, improving fuel economy.
If the indicator light on the instrument cluster is
illuminated, overdrive is “OFF.”
