Driving 2(Second) - Use 2(Second) to start-up on slippery roads or to provide additional engine braking on downgrades. Transmission operates in first and second gears. 1(Low) - Use 1(Low) to provide maximum engine braking on steep downgrades. Upshifts can be made by shifting to 2(Second) or to D (Overdrive). Selecting 1(Low) at higher speeds causes a shift to 2(Second), and will shift to 1(Low) after vehicle decelerates to the proper speed. Brake-shift interlock The brake-shift interlock feature prevents you from shifting from P(Park) unless the brake pedal is depressed (with the ignition in the On position). If you cannot move the gearshift out of P(Park) with the brake pedal depressed: 1. Turn ignition key to Off (3). 2. Apply the parking brake. 3 4 5 2 1 117
