downshift again to second gear. The transmission will
upshift as the vehicle reaches the top of the hill.
When Descending A Hill
If vehicle speed rises 3 mph (5 km/h) over the Speed
Control SET speed, the transmission will downshift to
third gear. This provides engine braking to keep vehicle
speed under control. The transmission will not downshift
below third gear to control vehicle overspeed. The trans-
mission will upshift to fourth gear after the vehicle has
reached the bottom of the hill.
NOTE:On very steep hills, a greater speed loss or gain
may occur. It may be preferable to drive without Speed
Control.
Rolling Hills
The transmission may downshift into third gear and
remain there as the vehicle travels over rolling hills. The
transmission will upshift into fourth gear when the road
flattens out.
The transmission will resume its normal shift schedule if
you depress the accelerator pedal during any of the
above conditions.

optional universal garage door opener (HomeLink), an
optional sunroof switch, and either an Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC) or an Overhead Travel Infor-
mation System (OTIS).

Wind Buffeting
Wind buffeting can be described as the perception of
pressure on the ears or a helicopter type sound in the
ears. Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the
windows down, or the sunroof (if so equipped) in certain
open or partially open positions. This is a normal occur-
rence and can be minimized. If the buffeting occurs with
the rear windows open, open the front and rear windows
together to minimize the buffeting. If the buffeting occurs
with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening to
minimize the buffeting.
Sun Roof Maintenance
Use only a non abrasive cleaner and a soft cloth to clean
