Driving your vehicle
Shift-lock system
For your safety, the automatic
transmission has a shift-lock system
which prevents shifting the transmission
from P (Park) into R (Reverse) or D (Drive)
unless the UNLOCK button is pressed
while depressing the brake pedal.
To shift from P (Park) or N (Neutral) into R
(Reverse) or D (Drive):
1. Depress and hold the brake pedal.
2. Start the engine or place the Engine
Start/Stop button in the ON position.
3. Move the shift lever to R (Reverse) or D
(Drive) while pressing the UNLOCK
button.
Parking
Always come to a complete stop and
continue to depress the brake pedal. Shift
the gear to P (Park), apply the parking
brake, and press the Engine Start/Stop
button to the OFF position. Take the Key
with you when leaving the vehicle.
• When you stay in the vehicle with the
engine running, be careful not to
depress the accelerator pedal for a long
period of time. The engine or exhaust
system may overheat and start a fire.
• The exhaust gas and the exhaust
system are very hot. Keep away from
the exhaust system components.
• Do not stop or park over flammable
materials, such as dry grass, paper or
leaves. They may ignite and cause a
fire.
