Manual Third Gear (With Touch Activated Power): Notes

A manual 4-3 downshift is accomplished by moving the gear selector lever to the Manual position. In Manual the transmission is hydraulically prevented from upshifting into Fourth gear under any conditions. Also, the input clutch is applied in Manual range to provide engine compression braking in 3rd gear. The following information explains the additional changes during a manual 4-3 downshift as compared to a forced 4-3 downshift. Refer to Overdrive Range, 4-3 Downshift - Torque Converter Clutch Not Applied (Without Touch Activated Power)  or Overdrive Range, 4-3 Downshift - Torque Converter Clutch Not Applied (With Touch Activated Power)  for a complete description of a 4-3 downshift.
