The automatic transmission control system provides for various transmission programs. Depending on the actions of the driver or on the driving conditions of the car, either economical is selected, i.e. a fuel-saving program, or an active program, which can be loosely called "sports".
The choice of the transmission program is carried out automatically depending on the nature of the driver's work with the accelerator pedal.
With the slow or normal nature of working with the accelerator pedal, due to the early inclusion of higher gears and the late transition to lower gears, it becomes possible to save fuel.
So-called "sports" the transmission program is selected when the accelerator pedal is operated sharply enough. At the same time, you should not press the accelerator pedal so vigorously so as not to unnecessarily cross the pressure threshold on the accelerator pedal, after which the forced advance shifting to a lower gear provided for in the gearbox control system occurs. When choosing "sports" mode, engine power reserves are fully utilized due to some delay in shifting to a higher gear.
Warning: Depending on the driving resistance, for example when towing a trailer or driving in mountainous terrain, a program is automatically selected in order to provide increased traction on the drive wheels by downshifting and thus avoid constant gear changes.
Selector lock
Selector in positions "R" And "N" locked when the ignition is on. To remove the selector from these positions, press the brake pedal and press the button in the selector handle. Thanks to this, there is no situation when, due to negligence, one of the gears can be turned on and the car will start moving completely uncontrollably.
The design of the automatic transmission provides a delay device so that when moving from one position to another through the position "N" (for example, from "R" To "D") the selector was not blocked. Thanks to this, it is possible "rocking" stuck car. Only when the selector with the brake pedal released is more than one second in position "N", the selector is blocked.
At speeds above 5 km/h selector lock in position "N' automatically turns off.
