[. . . ] Some FM radio stations advertise a "rounded-off" frequency which is not the frequency they actually broadcast on. For example, a radio station that is assigned a frequency of 98. 7 MHz may call itself "Radio 99" even though 99. 0 MHz is not an allowable FM broadcast frequency.

Transmission operation is controlled by the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). The PCM will automatically adjust transmission operation to make up for varying conditions. Several sensors located on the engine and transmission such as throttle position, engine speed, vehicle speed and transmission temperature are used by the PCM to shift the transmission into a higher or lower gear when required for the best performance and fuel economy. For example, you may notice that the transmission will upshift to a higher gear more quickly when the vehicle has not reached normal operating temperature. The PCM also controls the transmission's Torque Converter Clutch (TCC) to further raise vehicle performance and fuel economy. The TCC will engage when the transmission operating temperature and other conditions determined by the PCM have been met. This can be accomplished by pushing the transmission control switch again, to cancel the OVERDRIVE OFF control and light. When to use 2 (Second) With the gearshift in the 2 (Second) gear position more engine braking is provided. Use 2 (Second) gear to drive up moderately steep grades, to start up slippery roads, or to provide moderate engine braking on downgrades. When to use 1 (Low) With the gearshift in the 1 (First) gear position maximum engine braking is provided. This position provides 1 (First) gear operation only with no automatic upshifts. Use 1 (First) gear to drive up steep grades, or to provide maximum engine braking on downgrades. 189 P (Park) Always come to a complete stop before you shift into P (Park). This position locks the transmission and prevents the rear wheels from turning. To securely latch the gearshift in the P (Park) position, pull it toward you, push it completely counterclockwise against the stop, and then push it toward the instrument panel. RWARNING Always set the parking brake fully and make sure the gearshift is securely latched in P (Park). RWARNING Never leave your vehicle unattended while it is running. Forced Downshifts To gain acceleration in j (Overdrive) or Drive (j position with Overdrive cancelled) when passing another vehicle, push the accelerator to the floor. The transmission will downshift to 2 (Second) gear or to 1 (First) gear at calibrated speeds. Power Braking Increasing the engine speed above idle without vehicle movement (such as holding the brake) in a forward or reverse gear causes transmission stall. NOTE: Continued operation in the stall condition can result in transmission overheat, malfunction or fluid expulsion. 190 Steering Your Vehicle Your vehicle comes with power steering.
