<Automatic transmission vehicles>
Use the shift selector to select gear ranges. Select
lever positions carefully to ensure proper engage-
ment of each gear.
1 Using the shift selector
:
While depressing the brake pedal, push the
button and move the shift selector out of
“P” (park). The lever cannot be moved
unless the ignition switch is in the “ON”
position.
:
Push the button and move the shift selector
to the desired position.
:
Move the shift selector to the desired posi-
tion without pushing the button.
NOTE:
•
Use the button when shifting down from “D”
(drive) to “3” or “2”, or when shifting up from “N”
(neutral) into “R” (reverse) or “P” (park), as indi-
cated by the white arrows (
) in the illustra-
tion.
•
Never push the button on the shift selector when
shifting up from “3” or “2” or down from “N” (neu-
tral) into drive, as indicated by the black arrows
(
) in the illustration. With the button pressed,
the lever could unexpectedly slip into the “P”,
“R”, “3” or “2” position.
•
For safety, the shift selector cannot be moved
out of “P” (park) unless the brake pedal is
depressed.
•
Even with the brake pedal depressed, the shift
selector cannot be moved if the ignition switch is
in the “LOCK” position or “ACC” position.
If the shift selector cannot be moved out of “P”
(park) even with the ignition switch in the “ON” posi-
tion and the brake pedal depressed, move the shift
selector while pushing the shift lock release knob.
This problem can be caused by an electrical fault.
Bring the vehicle to an authorized Sterling service
facility for inspection.
2 Ranges
P: Use “P” when not moving.
Example:
to start or
warm up the engine. Insert or remove the igni-
tion key with the shift selector in “P.”
R: Use “R” for backing up. The backup lights illumi-
nate, and a warning buzzer sounds.
N: The engine can be started with the shift selector
in “N”, but it is safer to use “P.”
D: Use “D” for normal driving. With the overdrive
lockout switch in the “ON” position (overdrive
on), the transmission shifts automatically from
1st through 6th gears. With the overdrive lock-
out switch in the “OFF” position (overdrive
locked out), the transmission shifts automatically
from 1st through 4th gears.
