AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
WARNINGS
Always fully apply the parking brake
and make sure you shift into park (P).
Failure to follow this instruction could result
in personal injury or death.
Do not apply the brake pedal and
accelerator pedal simultaneously.
Applying both pedals simultaneously for
more than a few seconds will limit engine
performance, which may result in difficulty
maintaining speed in traffic and could lead
to serious injury.
Note: You may not be able to shift out of
park (P) unless the intelligent access key is
inside your vehicle.
Push Button Shift Transmission
Your vehicle is equipped with an electronic
transmission. The transmission selector is
located on the instrument panel next to the
display screen. The gears are selected by
pressing and releasing the PRNDS buttons.
