Overdrive button

Sounds like a dumb question but when do I use my overdrive button? I'm a little confused! Should it be 'off' when I'm driving round the streets and 'on' when I'm at speed or the other way round? I'm such a dummy - forgive me!!!!!!!

I leave mine engaged

It only appears when i exceed 55mph, around town you will not use it.

Theres no real reason to switch it off when driving normally. MPG will usually suffer if you stop it selecting O/D when ever poss. Only really any use if you towing and want to keep the revs up, or stop it shunting between 3rd and O/D on long hills.
