Notice: Shifting to REVERSE (R) while your
vehicle is moving forward could damage the
transmission. The repairs would not be covered
by your warranty. Shift to REVERSE (R) only
after your vehicle is stopped.

Use REVERSE (R), along with the parking brake,
for parking your vehicle.

Up-Shift Light

This light will show you
when to shift to the next
higher gear for best
fuel economy.

When this light comes on, you can shift to the next
higher gear if weather, road and traffic conditions
permit. For the best fuel economy, accelerate
slowly and shift when the light comes on.

While you accelerate, it is normal for the light to
go on and off if you quickly change the position of
the accelerator. Ignore the shift light when you
downshift.

If your vehicle has four-wheel drive and has a
manual transmission, disregard the shift light when
the transfer case is in four-wheel low.

For more information, see Up-Shift Light (Manual
Transmission)
on page 185.

CAUTION:

If you skip a gear when you downshift,
you could lose control of your vehicle.
You could injure yourself or others.
Do not shift down more than one gear at
a time when you downshift.
