Gear selection and operation
The gears for automatic transmission are
marked on the shift handle, P is park. When
the brake pedal is pressed, and the READY
indicator lights on after starting, you may shift
from P to other gears; R is reverse, which can
function after the vehicle is stationary. Nis
neutral, which can function when temporarily
stopped. D is driving, which can be used in
normal driving. The gear shifting can be
realized easily by shift handle, except that the
brake pedal has to be pressed down when
starting. The shift handle will return to the
central position after releasing your hand and
gear shifting successfully.
NOTICE
 Do not depress the accelerator pedal
when shifting the lever, or depress it at
once even if gear shifting is completed
successfully, to prevent damage to the
transmission.
 Never shift to reverse position when
the vehicle is driving forward to prevent
parts damage. Be sure that the vehicle
is stationary before shifting into reverse
position.
 Do not brake only using P gear to
prevent damage from the excessive
force. And do not coast in neutral gear
for a long time to prevent damage to
the transmission.
 When idling, please release the brake
pedal slowly after shifting to D or R
gear in order to achieve a steady
driving speed.
