To change the position of the steering wheel, pull the release lever on the column toward you. Tip the steering wheel to the desired position. Release the lever to lock the steering wheel in place. NOTE: Since your vehicle has an Automatic Overdrive Transaxle, you may want to drive in D (Drive) when driving in hilly terrain, at higher altitudes, or when pulling a trailer. This will improve speed control performance. NOTE: Do not shift to N (Neutral) when using the speed control. This will cause the engine to overspeed. Speed Control Your vehicle has speed control, so you can automatically maintain a constant speed above 30 mph (48 km/h). The switches to operate the speed control are on the steering wheel. Use of radio transmitting equipment that is not Federal Communications Commission (FCC) or in Canada the Canadian Radio and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) approved may cause the speed control to malfunction. Therefore, use only properly installed FCC (CRTC in Canada) approved radio transmitting equipment in your vehicle. 95
