erator pedal to the floor. This shifts the transmis-
sion down into a lower gear, depending on the

Fail-safe
When the fail-safe operation occurs, please note
that the transmission will be locked in any of the
forward gears according to the condition.

ditions, such as excessive wheel spinning
and subsequent hard braking, the fail-safe

even if all electrical circuits are functioning
properly. In this case, place the ignition
switch in the OFF position and wait for 3
seconds. Then turnthe ignition switch back
to the ON position. The vehicle should re-
turn to its normal operating condition. If it
does not return to its normal operating
