Economy, Sport and Manual Modes
The Auto Gear Box Control Unit (Z255) has various different driving modes available, with Economy being selected automatically on start up. When the vehicle is in High range, Sport mode can be selected. This will make the gear change much more sensitive to throttle movement, thereby shifting down earlier and holding onto lower gears longer than the Economy mode equivalent. If the vehicle is in Low range, then Manual mode can be selected. This will make the gear box change into the selected gear as quickly as possible and hold on to
that gear at all speeds, i.e. If "3" is selected, then the gear box will not shift down to "2" or "1" as the vehicle slows down. It will only change gear to prevent the vehicle from stalling.
