OFF:

For driving up and down long
slopes where engine braking is nec-
essary push the Overdrive switch
once. The O/D OFF indicator light
in the instrument panel comes on at
this time.

When cruising at a low speed or climbing a
gentle slope, you may feel uncomfortable shift
shocks as the transmission shifts into and out of
Overdrive repeatedly. In this case, depress the
Overdrive switch to turn the Overdrive off. The
O/D OFF indicator light in the instrument panel
comes on at this time.

When driving conditions change, depress the
Overdrive switch to turn the Overdrive on.

Remember not to drive at high speeds for ex-
tended periods of time with the Overdrive off.
This reduces fuel economy.

WARNING

Be sure the parking brake is fully re-

leased before driving. Failure to do so
can cause brake failure and lead to an
accident.

Do not release the parking brake from

outside the vehicle.

Do not use the gear shift in place of the

parking brake. When parking, be sure
the parking brake is fully engaged.

Do not leave children unattended in a

vehicle. They could release the parking
brake and cause an accident.

To engage: Firmly depress the parking brake.

To release:

1. Firmly apply the foot brake.

2. Move the shift selector to the P (Park) posi-

tion.

3. Firmly depress the parking brake pedal and it

will release.

light goes out.
