• The anti-theft steering column
lock
(if equipped) is not a substi‐
tute for the parking brake. Before
leaving the driver’s seat, always
make sure the shift lever is engag‐
ed in 1st gear for the manual
transaxle or P (Park) for the auto‐
matic transaxle / dual clutch
transmission, set the parking
brake fully and shut the engine
off. Unexpected and sudden vehi‐
cle movement may occur if these
precautions are not taken.
• Never reach for the ignition
switch,
or any other controls
through the steering wheel while
the vehicle is in motion. The pres‐
ence of your hand or arm in this
area could cause a loss of vehicle
control, an accident and serious
bodily injury or death.
• Do not place any movable objects
around the driver’s seat as they
may move while driving, interfere
with the driver and lead to an acci‐
dent.
Starting the engine
WARNING
• Always wear appropriate shoes
when operating your vehicle. Un‐
suitable shoes (high heels, ski
boots, etc.) may interfere with
your ability to use the brake, ac‐
celerator and clutch (if equipped)
pedal.
• Do not start the vehicle with the
accelerator pedal depressed. The
vehicle can move and lead to an
accident.
• Wait until the engine rpm is nor‐
mal. The vehicle may suddenly
move if the brake pedal is released
when the rpm is high.
