R (reverse)

Use this position to drive the vehicle

backward.

✽

NOTICE

Always come to a complete stop

before shifting into or out of R

(Reverse); you may damage the

transaxle if you shift into R while

the vehicle is in motion.

N (neutral)

The wheels and transaxle are not

locked. The vehicle will roll freely

even on the slightest incline unless

the parking brake or service brakes

are applied.

D (drive)

This is the normal forward driving

position. The transaxle will automati-

cally shift through a 4-gear

sequence, providing the best fuel

economy and power.

For extra power when passing anoth-

er vehicle or climbing grades,

depress the accelerator fully, at

which time the transaxle will auto-

matically downshift to the next lower

gear.

✽

NOTICE

Always come to a complete stop

before shifting into D (Drive).
