"D" Position

1. Manually shift selector lever from "N" to "D" position, and note shift quality.
2. Using the shift schedule as a reference, drive vehicle in "D" position. Record, on symptom chart, respective vehicle speeds at which up-shifting and down-shifting occur. These speeds are to be read at three different throttle positions (light, half and full), respectively. Also determine the timing at which shocks are encountered during shifting and which clutches are engaged.
3. Determine whether lock-up properly occurs while driving vehicle in proper gear position and at proper vehicle speed.
4. Check to determine if shifting to overdrive gear cannot be made while overdrive control switch is OFF.
5. Drive vehicle at 60 to 70 km/h (37 to 43 MPH) with half to light throttle position (D3 position). Fully depress accelerator pedal to make sure transaxle downshifts from 3rd to 2nd gear.
6. Drive vehicle at 25 to 35 km/h (16 to 22 MPH) with half to light throttle position (D2 position). Fully depress accelerator pedal to make sure transaxle downshifts from 2nd to 1st gear.
