When you\'re carrying a heavy load or going uphill and the transmission is not shifting down to the correct gear (vehicle accelerates slowly or loses speed) \r\n\r\nAlso to allow the engine to slow the car when going down a steep hill - less wear/strain on your brakes. The effect it will have in slowing the car depends on how fast you are traveling, you may need to shift down a gear (From D into 3, for instance) instead of disengaging your O/D if you are traveling slowly and want to let the car \'hold you back\' instead of using your brake excessively.

Generally speaking, overdrive (OD) is the highest gear in the transmission. Overdrive allows the engine to operate at a lower rpm for a given road speed. This allows the vehicle to achieve better fuel efficiency, and often quieter operation on the highway. When it is switched on, an automatic transmission can shift into overdrive mode after a certain speed is reached (usually 70+ km/h [43+ mph] depending on the load). When it is off, the automatic transmission shifting is limited to the lower gears. For an automatic transmission, it is almost always best to select overdrive and allow the transmission to control engagement of the overdrive. (It may be necessary to switch it off if the vehicle is being operated in a mountainous area or when towing a trailer.) With a manual transmission, overdrive should usually be selected when the average speed is above 70 km/h (approx. 43 mph)

if you drive below 70km/hr , please keep the ``OD off`` display on the screen by pressing the small button in gear button. if you drive above 70km/hr , then press the small button in gear button to disappear the ``OD off`` display on the screen.
