you have all the time to create this thread, read and reply my earlier 'tease' as well as reply this one.
With that same time, you could have 'googled' up your enquiry and gotten yourself satisfactory answers.
This is 2018...utilize your time and energy optimally.

ok sire..

What happens is this. When the O/D button is out and the light off, the transmission will go through all the gears including overdrive, which is the highest gear. The O/D button is not actually to engage it, but to lock it out. It is used for overtaking, climbing hills or towing. It means that when the button is pressed and the “O/D Off” light comes on, the car will not go into top gear which is gear four for most automatics from Japan. So if your transmission is four gears, and the overdrive is set to off, the car will be limited to three gears and won’t shift into the fourth. This is why when doing high speeds and you press the overdrive button, there is a downshift from the highest gear.

THANK YOU FOR THE SUCCINCT RESPONSE... BUT MY MANUAL SAYS I SHOULD ALWAYS DRIVE WITH THE O/D ENGAGED FOR MAXIMUM FUEL ECONOMY... MY QUESTION NOW IS WHEN AM I NOT SUPPOSED TO DRIVE WITH THE O/D ENGAGED?

When you need torque to ascend a hill or to overcome a rough driving phase.
