IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Stopping and Parking
Parking
ADVICE
• Except in an emergency, do not apply the parking brake until the vehicle has
come to a complete stop. Applying the parking brake before the vehicle has
stopped can cause a breakdown.
• Avoid parking for long periods with cargo on the vehicle.

CAUTION
• Choose a flat place where stopping and parking are permitted and where the
vehicle will not obstruct traffic.
• When parking the vehicle, be sure to shift the gearshift lever to the "N" position
(manual transmission models) or the selector lever to the "P" position (automatic
transmission models). In addition, apply the parking brake and make sure that
the vehicle does not move.
• Remove all dirt from the vehicle's light lenses and reflectors to ensure that the
vehicle can be seen from other vehicles.
Pulling Away After a Temporary Stop
CAUTION
• Make it a habit to look around and
confirm that it is safe to pull away
after a temporary stop (at traffic
lights, for example).
