4-Speed Automatic Transmission (3.5L Engine)
NOTE: Under extreme cold temperatures (-6°F (-21°C)

eration will resume once the transmission temperature
has risen to a suitable level.
Shifting from DRIVE to PARK or REVERSE should be
done only after the accelerator pedal is released and the
vehicle is stopped. Be sure to keep your foot on the brake
pedal when moving the shift lever between these gears.
