You leave it in D (OD on). The transmission can figure out the gears for itself. Overdrive isn't anything fancy or crazy. . . all it is is a fuel conserving gear that has a ratio less than 1.0. It means that it takes less than one turn of the axle to turn the wheel. If your automatic is struggling for power, it will shift OUT of OD and into 3. There is never any reason to use 3 except for engine braking and holding the gear for "racing" lol or climbing a hill to prevent gear hunting. Re-read your manual.
