STARTING AND OPERATING 263 AutoStickா Operation By placing the selector lever one shift-level below the ЉDЉ (Drive) position, it can be moved from side to side. This allows the driver to select a higher or lower range of gears. Moving the selector lever to the Left (-) triggers a downshift and to the Right (+) an upshift. The gear position will display in the instrument cluster on the transaxle range indicator. NOTE: In Autostick mode, the transaxle will only shift up or down when the driver moves the selector lever to the Right (+) or Left (-). AutoStick is deactivated when the lever is shifted from the AutoStick (+/-) position into the Drive "D" position. AutoStickா General Information • You can start out in first or second gear. The system will ignore attempts to upshift at too low of a vehicle speed. • If a ratio other than 1st is selected, and the vehicle is brought to a stop, the transaxle control logic will automatically select the 1st gear ratio. • Starting out in second gear is helpful in snowy or icy conditions. • Avoid using speed control when Autostick is engaged. • The transaxle will automatically shift up when maximum engine speed is reached while Autostick is engaged. 5
