1.1.35.2. Selector positions

GENERAL INFORMATION

On a guard of devices the display on which is shown is located, in what position there is a selector.

Prevention

Never during movement transfer the selector to "R" or "R" position. The transmission can fail – there is a danger of failure!

R – lay blocking

Driving wheels are mechanically blocked.

It is necessary to transfer the selector to this position only at completely stopped car. Before inclusion and switching off of a position of "R" it is necessary to press the blocking button on the selector handle. Before switching off of this position at the included ignition it is necessary to press a brake pedal in addition.

R–backing

The position of a backing should join only at completely stopped car and when idling engine. Before transition to "R" position from positions of "R" or "N" it is necessary to press a brake pedal and to press on the blocking button in the selector handle.

In "R" position at the included ignition backing lamps burn.

N–neutral position (idling position)

At a selector conclusion from "N" position at speed of movement to 5 km/h, and also at the motionless car and the included ignition it is necessary to press a brake pedal and to press on the blocking button on the selector handle.

D–long advance

Four transfers are switched with low to higher and on the contrary automatically depending on load of the engine and from speed of movement.

Under certain conditions movements expediently temporarily to use one of mentioned below positions.

3–a position for "hilly" sites of the road

Such position of the selector is recommended when in certain traffic conditions at position of the selector in a position "D" there is a frequent switching to the 3rd on the 4th transfer and on the contrary.

For transfer of the selector to this position it is necessary to press the blocking button in the selector handle. The 1st, 2nd or 3rd transfers depending on load of the engine and speed of movement are automatically switched up and down, the 4th transfer is blocked. Thanks to it the brake effect of the engine also increases at fuel interruption of supply.

2–a position for mountain sites of the road

This position is recommended for long liftings and descents.

Are automatically switched up and down the 1st and 2nd transfer depending on load of the engine and speed of movement, the 3rd and 4th transfers remain blocked to avoid unnecessary switchings on the highest transfers. Thus efficiency of braking by the engine also raises.

1–a position for mountain sites of the road with big biases

The choice of this position is recommended when driving on steep slopes and descents.

At inclusion of this position it is necessary to press the blocking button on the selector handle. The car moves only on the 1st transfer, the 2nd, 3rd and 4th transfers are blocked to avoid unnecessary switchings on the highest transfers. The greatest possible effect of braking is thus reached by the engine.

Cruise control in a position of "1" selector cannot be used.

Prevention

At manual switching on decreasing it is possible to pass to the positions "З", "2" and "1", however switching on lower transfers occurs automatically only when after switching the most admissible frequency of rotation of the engine will not be exceeded.
