DRIVE (D): This position is for normal driving with the

automatic transmission. It provides the best fuel

economy for your vehicle. If you need more power for

passing, and you are:

• Going less than about 35 mph (55 km/h), push your

accelerator pedal about halfway down.

• Going about 35 mph (55 km/h), push your

accelerator all the way down.

Downshifting the transmission in slippery road conditions

could result in skidding, see “Skidding” under Loss of

Control on page 4-12.

INTERMEDIATE (I): This position is also used for

normal driving. However, it reduces vehicle speed without

using your brakes for slight downgrades where the

vehicle would otherwise accelerate due to steepness of

grade. If constant upshifting or downshifting occurs while

driving up steep hills, this position can be used to prevent

repetitive types of shifts. You might choose

INTERMEDIATE (I) instead of DRIVE (D) when driving

on hilly, winding roads and when towing a trailer, so that

there is less shifting between gears.

LOW (L): This position reduces vehicle speed more

than INTERMEDIATE (I) without actually using

your brakes. You can use it on very steep hills, or in

deep snow or mud. If the shift lever is put in LOW (L),

the transmission will not shift into LOW (L) until the

vehicle is going slowly enough.

Notice: Spinning the tires or holding the vehicle in

one place on a hill using only the accelerator

pedal may damage the transmission. The repair will

not be covered by your warranty. If you are stuck,

do not spin the tires. When stopping on a hill,

use the brakes to hold the vehicle in place.

Transmission Overheating

If the transmission ﬂuid temperature rises above

284°F (140°C) or rises rapidly, the Engine Coolant

Temperature Warning Light will ﬂash. See Engine

Coolant Temperature Warning Light on page 3-35 for

more information. When the transmission overheats

it will go into a protection mode and will default shift into

ﬁfth gear if in the DRIVE (D) position, or second gear

if in the LOW (L) position. Continue driving the vehicle in

either position depending on the required vehicle

speed and load. Once the ﬂuid temperature lowers to

the normal temperature range, the transmission will

return to the normal shift patterns. Towing or driving on

long hills can cause the transmission ﬂuid temperature

to be higher than normal. If the transmission ﬂuid

temperature will not cool, you may need to pull over and

check the transmission ﬂuid level. You should also

check the engine coolant temperature. If it is hot, see

Engine Overheating on page 5-25.
