Honda Fit: Automatic Transmission

■Creeping

The engine may run at a higher idle speed and creeping increases: • Immediately after the engine starts.

• When the heating and cooling system is in use.

Keep the brake pedal firmly depressed when stopped.

■Kickdown

Quickly depressing the accelerator pedal while driving uphill may cause the transmission to drop to a lower gear, unexpectedly increasing vehicle speed. Depress the accelerator pedal carefully, especially on slippery roads and curves.
