[DR02100( EF )01/95]

When to use 1 (Low)

*

[DR02200( EF )06/92]

Use 1 (Low) to drive up steep grades and to
provide maximum engine braking on hilly roads.
Upshifts from 1 (Low) can be made by manually
shifting to 2 (Second) or D (Drive). Selection of 1
(Low) gear provides only First gear operation at
start-up. When driving, manually shifting to 1
(Low) will result in downshifts to Second gear
or First gear depending on vehicle speed.

*

[DR02250( EF )12/91]

NOTE: Do not drive faster than 30 mph

(48 km/h) in this gear.

*

[DR02300( EF )01/95]

P (Park)

*

[DR02400( EF )03/94]

Always come to a complete stop before you shift
into P (Park). This position locks the
transmission and prevents the rear wheels from
turning. To securely latch the gearshift in the P
(Park) position, pull it toward you, push it
completely counterclockwise against the stop,
and then push it toward the instrument panel.

*

[DR02450( EF )03/94]

The gearshift is securely latched in P (Park) if
you cannot rotate it in a clockwise direction
without lifting it toward you.

*

[DR02500( EF )05/95]

RWARNING

Always set the parking brake fully and
make sure that the gearshift is securely
latched in P (Park).

*

[DR02600( EF )05/95]

RWARNING

Never leave your vehicle unattended
while it is running.

[DR02625( F )05/95]

When the transfer case is in the N (Neutral)
position, the engine and transmission are
disconnected from the rest of the driveline.
Therefore, the vehicle is free to roll even if the
automatic transmission is in P (Park) or the
manual transmission is in gear.
