Automatic Gear Shift Table

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Suzuki Grand Vitara. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Automatic gear shift schedule is shown in the following table. Test-drive the vehicle on a flat road in the D position.

NOTE: The gear change is done at the shift point different from the above while any of the following control functions is working. Bear this in mind when performing inspection.

Slope Shift Control
When TCM makes up-slope judgment, Slope Shift Control (on up-slope) is executed by changing the gear change point to the high-speed side so as to reduce frequent up-shift and down-shift operations.

When TCM makes down-shift judgment, Slope Shift Control (on down-slope) is executed by changing the gear change point to the low-speed side so as to use engine-brake function effectively while driving on a down-slope.
Cruise Shift Control
Cruise Shift Control is executed by selecting appropriate gear according to requirement for retaining a constant vehicle speed or acceleration so as to reduce frequent up-shift and down-shift operations while cruising.
