(Drive) provides more engine

braking than

(Overdrive) and is useful when:

• driving with a heavy load

• towing a trailer up or down steep hills

• additional engine braking is desired. If towing a

trailer, refer to Driving while you tow in the

Trailer Towing chapter.

To return to

(Overdrive) mode, press the

transmission control switch. The O/D OFF indicator

will no longer be illuminated.

Each time the vehicle is started, the transmission

must press the transmission control switch to cancel

overdrive operation if driving in overdrive is not

desired.

2 (Second)

Use 2 (Second) to

start-up on slippery

roads or to provide

additional engine

braking on downgrades.

1 (First)

Use 1 (Low) to provide

maximum engine

braking on steep

downgrades. Upshifts

can be made by

shifting to 2 (Second)

or to

(Overdrive).

Selecting 1 (Low) at

higher speeds causes the transmission to shift to a

lower gear, and will shift to 1 (Low) after vehicle

decelerates to the proper speed.
