If you exceed the maximum speed
f or the gear you are in, the engine
speed will enter into the tachometer’s
red zone. If this occurs, you may f eel

computer controls. The engine will
run normally when you reduce the
rpm below the red zone.

D button when the shif t lever is in
the ‘‘D’’ position. This position is simi-

when going down a steep hill. D can
also keep the transmission f rom
cycling between third and f ourth
gears in stop-and-go driving.
This position locks
the transmission in second gear. It
