WARNING
n
Automatic transmission
• Always check the surrounding
areas near your vehicle for people,
especially children, before shifting
a car into D (Drive) or R (Reverse).
• Before leaving the driver’s seat, al‐
ways make sure the shift lever is
in the P (Park) position; then set
the parking brake fully and shut
the engine off. Unexpected and
sudden vehicle movement can oc‐
cur if these precautions are not
followed in the order identified.
CAUTION
• To avoid damage to your trans‐
mission, do not accelerate the en‐
gine in R (Reverse) or any forward
gear position with the brakes on.
• When stopped on an incline, do not
hold the vehicle stationary with
engine power. Use the service
brake or the parking brake.

• Do not shift from N (Neutral) or P
(P
ark) into D (Drive), or R (Reverse)
when the engine is above idle
speed.
Transmission ranges
The indicator in the instrument cluster
and shift lever displays the shift lever
position when the Engine Start/Stop
button is in the OFF/ACC/ON position.
P (Park)
Always come to a complete stop before
shifting into P (Park). This position
locks the transmission and prevents
the drive wheels from rotating.
To shift the gear from [R], [N], [D] or
[M] to [P], press the [P] button on the
shift lever.
If you turn off the engine in [D], [R] or
[M], the shifting automatically changes
to [P].
If you press the [P] button when the
shifting is on [M] or if you turn the en‐
gine off when the shifting is on [M], the
shift lever is automatically moved to
right side and the shifting is changed to
[P].
When the shift lever is automatically
moved to right side, if you hold the
shift lever by force, the warning mes‐
sage will be illuminated in cluster. Move
the shift lever to right side manually.
When you park the vehicle, press the
[P] button of shift lever with applying
brake pedal and apply the parking
brake.
WARNING
• Shifting into P (Park) while the ve‐
hicle is in motion will cause the
drive wheels to lock which will
cause you to lose control of the
vehicle.
