N: NEUTRAL POSITION
At this position, the engine does not transfer power to the
wheels and the vehicle will not move on a flat road. However,
for safety, apply the brake when the gear is in this position.
To shift into “D” or “R” position from “N” position after stop-
ping the vehicle, you have to depress the brake pedal with
the ignition switch “ON”.
Use this position for normal driving conditions. The trans-
mission is automatically shifted from 1st gear up to 5th
gears according to the level of depression on the accelera-
tor pedal.
D: DRIVE POSITION
• Warm up the engine for approx.3 minutes when the ambient tem-
perature is below -15°C. Otherwise, the gear selector lever may
not be moved smoothly (N→R). It is designed for protecting the
vehicle and is not a fault.
• Never shift into “N” from the “D” position or vice versa when
the vehicle is moving, or the transmission will be damaged.
• If you have to stop on a hill and would like to use this neutral
position, depress the brake pedal firmly.
• Never attempt to move the gear selector lever to “N” when the
vehicle is in motion.
