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 (1), the transaxle will not shift

into ﬁrst gear 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 transaxle. If you are stuck,

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

use the brakes to hold the vehicle in place.

Adaptive Shift Logic

Your automatic transaxle will automatically select from

three adaptive shift patterns based upon driver behavior:

• Economy mode provides a softer shift feel and

optimizes fuel economy.

• Normal mode provides a solid shift feel and is used

for normal driving conditions.

• Sport mode provides a ﬁrm shift feel and optimizes

performance.

The driver cannot manually select the shift pattern. The

adaptive shift logic tries to operate in economy mode

as much as possible. Normal and sport modes are used

as little as possible in order to maximize fuel economy.

The ﬁrst few shifts of every drive cycle may be

somewhat rough until the adaptive shift logic has

learned the driver’s behavior. This is normal.

The transaxle also has the ability to adapt to changing

road grade conditions. It will shift between three

different load settings:

• Load 1 is designed for driving on moderate road

grades.

• Load 2 is designed for driving on steep road

grades.

• Load 3 is designed for driving downhill and allows

for better engine braking.

If there is a malfunction with the automatic transaxle, the

malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) or the HOLD indicator

light will turn on or ﬂash. See Malfunction Indicator Lamp

on page 3-39 or Hold Mode Light on page 3-38.

Have your vehicle ﬁxed as soon as possible.
