- The automatic transmission's select lever moves through seven positions.
- The select lever makes shift direction (longitudinal) movements as well as select direction (lateral) movements. The select lever is guided by a gate to make these movements.
- To transmit movements of the select lever to the transmission, a push-pull cable is used.
- The select lever mechanism has a detent spring and a detent arm. It ensures more precise positioning of the select lever.
- A plastic select lever base plate is used.
GENERAL
To increase safety during standing start, the shift lock system prevents movement of the select lever from the "P" position to any other position unless the brake pedal is depressed. This system is also provided with a key interlock function which prevents removal of the ignition key from the key cylinder unless the selector lever is placed in the "P" position.
