1.63. An automatic transmission

Positions of the lever of switching of modes by an automatic transmission

Highly effective automatic transmission ХЁНДЭ has four transfers for advance and one transfer of a backing. It has the usual scheme of a gear change shown in drawing 117. At night, in the first position of the multipurpose switch on the gear change scheme the indicator will burn corresponding to the chosen range of transfers.

The prevention

During car movement it is impossible to translate the selector lever in position "Р" or "R".

For selector moving it is necessary to press the button, simultaneously pressing a brake pedal.

For selector moving it is necessary to press the button.

For moving of the selector it is not necessary to press the button.

---

For the maximum economy of fuel, be accelerated smoothly. The automatic transmission will automatically include the second, third and raising transfers.

APPOINTMENTS OF POSITIONS OF THE SELECTOR

"Р" – Parking

Use this position for car keeping on a place during parking or engine start. At a car parking, include a lay brake and translate the selector in position "Р" (Parking).

---

The prevention

Do not move the selector to position "Р" (Parking) while the car will not be completely stopped. The neglect this rule can lead to breakage of an automatic transmission.

---

"R" – The Backing:

Use this position for movement by a backing. Translate the selector lever in position "R" (Backing) only after a full stop of the car.

"N" – Neutral position:

In this position of the selector the automatic transmission is disconnected. In this position it is possible to start the engine, however it is not recommended except cases when the engine has decayed during car movement.

"D" – "Movement", the basic transfer:

This position of the lever of the selector of an automatic transmission is the core for movement. The automatic transmission will automatically include one of four transfers, providing the best profitability and capacity. If speed of the car exceeds 95 km/h, never translate the selector in position "2" (the Second transfer) or "L" (Lowering transfer).

"2" – the Second transfer:

Use this position for movement on slippery road, lifting on an abrupt bias and for braking by the engine at descent from an abrupt bias. In this position of the selector, there is an automatic switching between 1st and 2nd transfers. It means that there is no switching on 3rd transfer. However if speed of the car exceeds certain value, there is a switching on 3rd transfer with a view of prevention of excessive dispersal of the engine. Selector transfer in position "D" ("Movement") returns a normal gear change.

"L" – Lowering transfer:

This position of the lever of the selector of an automatic transmission is the core at movement on very abrupt biases and for braking by the engine on low speeds of movement at descent from abrupt biases. At inclusion of lowering transfer "L", a transmission will be temporary to remain in a range of the second transfer while the car will not lower speed till the speed when inclusion of lowering transfer "L" will be possible. At movement in a mode "L" – ("Lowering transfer") do not exceed speed of 50 km/h.

The prevention

For a smooth and safe gear change, while translating the selector of position "N" or "Р" before including transfer, completely squeeze out a brake pedal.
To translate the selector from position "N" or "Р" in any other position, it is necessary to press a brake pedal completely.
You can always translate the selector from position "R", "N", "D", "2", "L" in position "Р".
Translate the selector in position "Р" or "R" only after a full stop of the car.
Do not increase frequency of rotation of a cranked shaft of the engine when the selector is in position of transfer of a backing or one of movement positions at the pressed pedal of a brake.
While translating the selector from position "N" or positions "Р" in another positions "Р", "D", "2", or "L" always press a brake pedal.
Do not use position "Р" instead of a lay brake. Always include a lay brake, translate the selector in position "Р" and switch off ignition when you leave the car, even for a second. Do not leave the car without supervision when the engine works.
Regularly check liquid level in an automatic transmission and add a liquid if necessary.

Receptions of correct driving

Do not translate the selector from position "N" or "Р" in any other position
At the pressed pedal of an accelerator.

During car movement it is impossible to translate the selector lever in position "Р".

Before translating the selector in position "Р", be convinced that the car is completely stopped.
Do not slide under a bias on neutral transfer. It is very dangerous. Always hold transfer included in time of movement of the car.

Avoid style of driving with frequent sharp braking, and do not hold the left foot on a brake pedal constantly during driving. It conducts to an overheat of brakes and loss of efficiency of their work.
On long descents it is necessary to apply braking by the engine to prevention of an overheat of brakes (including hill-climbing gears).

At hill-climbing gear inclusion, slightly brake the car. Otherwise the hill-climbing gear can not join.

Always use a lay brake. Do not rely on selector transfer in position "Р" for prevention of movement of the car.

Be especially cautious at movement on slippery road during braking, acceleration and a gear change. On slippery road, sharp change of speed of the car can lead to loss of coupling of wheels of the car with road and control loss over the car.

Include the switch of raising transfer for maintenance of good fuel profitability and smoothness of a course. In case of need braking by the engine in a range "D" or in need of repeating switching between 3rd and 4th transfers to time of lifting on a small bias, it is recommended to switch off raising transfer. After that include the switch of raising transfer.

---

The prevention

At control loss over the car on high speeds the risk переворачивания the car considerably increases.
Management loss often arises, when two or more wheels move down from a road track, and the driver tries to return the car back on a road track.
In a case if your car has moved down from a road track, avoid sharp turn of a steering wheel. Instead, lower speed of the car before again driving on road.

---

At inclusion of the switch of raising transfer, the transmission will automatically include the second, the third and raising transfers. When the switch of raising transfer is in position "ОFF" (Off), raising transfer will not be included. Under normal conditions movement the selector should be in position "D", and the switch of raising transfer should be included. If you need to make sharp acceleration, press an accelerator pedal against the stop. The transmission will automatically include a hill-climbing gear depending on speed of the car and loading.
