Back-up Control (Engine brake)

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

If the selector lever is shifted to 2 position while driving in D4 (O/D) or D3, great driving force is applied to the clutch inside the transmission. Clutch operating pressure (line pressure) must be increased to deal with this driving force.
