The overdrive function allows automatic upshifts and downshifts through
all available gears.

Deactivating overdrive

Press the Transmission Control
Switch (TCS) located on the end of

illuminate on the end of the gearshift lever. The transmission will operate
in all gears except overdrive.

To return to normal overdrive mode,

When you shut off and re-start your vehicle, the transmission will
automatically return to normal
