I second the idea of reading the manual, maybe talking to a transmission shop would be a good thing to do too. My story is comparing apples to oranges so take it for what it’s worth.
My 98 1/2 Dodge Cummins five speed locked up the transmission for the previous owner when it was pulling a large load in overdrive. The tranny was still under warranty from Inland parts, Inland told them overdrive should not be used under a hard load. The owner thought Inland was trying to weasel out of it but Later on I heard the same thing from another person. This rebuilt tranny had been in the pickup three days before this happened. They said overdrive is in the tail of the tranny and is undersized for the torque from the Diesel engine. Later that summer overdrive quit, you could put the shifter in overdrive but it was in neutral. They ran it without overdrive till after warranty was gone. Finally I pulled the tranny and found a worn snap ring had come out of a groove.

Again, I’m talking about a completely different vehicle but this is just an example of what can happen.
