Owner`s manual
FIRST
(1):
This position gives you even more power,
but lower fuel economy, than
SECOND
(2).
You
can
use
it on very steep
hills,
or
in
deep snow or mud.
If
the shift
lever is put
in
mRST
(1),
the transaxle won’t shift into
first gear until the vehicle is going slowly enough.
NOTICE:
If
your front wheels can’t rotate, don’t try to
drive. This might happen
if
you were stuck in
very deep sand or mud or were up against a solid
object.
You
could damage your transaxle.
Also,
if
you stop when going uphill, don’t hold
your vehicle there with only the accelerator
pedal. This could overheat and damage the
transaxle. Use your brakes to hold your vehicle in
position
on
a
hill.
Parking Brake
To set the parking brake,
hold the regular brake pedal
down with your right foot.
Push down the parking
brake pedal with your left
foot.
If
the ignition is on,
the brake system warning
light will come on.
The parking brake uses the brakes on the rear wheels.
