The overdrive function (preventing the transaxle from shifting into fourth gear) can be switched off using the spring loaded button on the selector lever knob. The corresponding indicator lamp in the instrument panel lights up showing that the overdrive function is switched off.

To activate overdrive function, press the button again and the lamp will go out.
