Range Selection: Notes

The transaxle range selector lever has six positions: P, R, N, D, 2, 1. In addition, a transmission control switch (TCS) allows the driver to prevent a shift to fourth gear (Overdrive) and uses engine compression to help slow the vehicle (engine braking) in second and third gear.
