SECOND (2): This position gives you more power but lower fuel economy. You can use SECOND (2) on hills. It can help control your speed as you go down steep mountain roads, but then you would also want to use your brakes off and on. FIRST (1): This position gives you even more power (but lower fuel economy) than SECOND ( 2 ) . You can use it on very steep hills, or in deep snow or mud. If the shift lever is put in FIRST ( I ) , the transaxle won't shift into first gear until the vehicle is going slowly enough. NOTICE: Don't drive in SECOND (2) for more than miles 5 (8 km), or at speeds over55 mph (88 km/h), or you can damage your transaxle. DRIVE (D) or Use THIRD (3) as much aspossible. Don't shift into SECOND(2) unless you are going slower than65 mph (105 km/h), or you can damage your engine. NOTICE: If your frontwheels can't rotate, don't try to drive. This might happen you were stuckin if very deep sand or mud or were up against a solid object. You could damage your transaxle. Also, if you stop when going uphill, don't hold your vehicle there withonly the accelerator pedal. This could overheat and damage the transaxle. Use your brakes or shift into PARK (P) to hold yourvehicle in position on a hill. 2-18
