This position locks the transmission to pre-
vent the vehicle from moving. The electric
motor unit can be started from the “PARK”
position.
This position is to back up.
Use this position only when the vehicle is sta-
tionary for an extended length of time while
driving, such as in a traffic jam.
Use this position for normal driving.
Use this position when you desire to limit
power consumption and/or when moderate
regenerative braking is required.
Use this position when strong regenerative
braking is required, such as on a steep down-
hill.
Refer to “Regenerative braking” on page 3-3.
Refer to “When driving downhill” on page
6-5.
CAUTION
If the selector lever position indicator blinks
while you are driving, it is likely that a safety
device is operating because of a malfunction
in the transmission system. We recommend
you to have your vehicle inspected as soon as
possible.
The selector lever position indicator warning
function does not operate with the selector
lever in the “R” (REVERSE) position.
Selector lever positions
“P” PARK
WARNING
Do not leave the vehicle with the electric
motor switch in the “ON” position. The
vehicle can move suddenly. To be sure the
vehicle will not move, even when you are
on level ground, always set the parking
brake and move the selector lever to the
“P” (PARK) position.
“R” REVERSE
CAUTION
Never move the selector lever to the “P”
(PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) position while
the vehicle is in motion. If the lever is moved
to the “P” (PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) posi-
tion while the vehicle is in motion, the trans-
mission could be damaged.
“N” NEUTRAL
WARNING
Never move the selector lever to the “N”
(NEUTRAL) position while the vehicle is
in motion. You will lose regenerative brak-
ing. In addition, a serious accident could
occur if the selector lever were inadver-
tently moved into the “P” (PARK) position
or “R” (REVERSE) position.
“D” DRIVE
CAUTION
To avoid transmission damage, never shift
into the “D” (DRIVE) position from the “R”
(REVERSE) position while the vehicle is in
motion.
