Selector Lever Positions
Park
In this position the transmission is
mechanically locked but engine starting
is possible. Park should not be selected
when the car is in motion or stationary
in busy car parks where shunting is
likely to occur.
Use of the Park position is recom-
mended when parking on flat and
sloping ground and before servicing.
Reverse
To select Reverse bring the car to Q
dead stop and release the accelerator
pedal (engine idling).
Neutral
In this position the engine can be
started.
Drive
This position is used for normal
driving.
The transmission starts in low gear
and automatically changes up or down
at suitable road speeds according to
the position of the accelerator pedal
and the demands made by the driver.
For quick down-shifting depress the
accelerator pedal through its hard spot
(kickdown position).
Kickdown permits down-shifting
from third to second below 59 to 64
mph or into first below 31 to 34 mph.
Normal change-down from D to 2
and D to 1 can be obtained by means
of the selector lever below 70 mph
and 43 mph respectively, without de-
pressing the accelerator pedal.
Intermediate
Operation is as described under D
but no up-shift into third is possible.
This may be advantageous when driving
over hilly or difficult roads requiring
