applied. To shift the transmission out of
PARK (P), the ignition must be placed in the
ON/RUN mode (engine running or not) and
the brake pedal must be pressed.
The gear selector must be in PARK (P) or
NE
UTRAL (N) to operate the starter.
The transmission gear selector has PARK

The transmission may be shifted freely from
RE
VERSE (R), to NEUTRAL (N), to DRIVE
(D), to MANUAL (M)(+/–).
WARNING!
It is dangerous to shift out of PARK or
NEUTRAL if the engine speed is higher
than idle speed. If your foot is not firmly
pressing the brake pedal, the vehicle
could accelerate quickly forward or in
reverse. You could lose control of the
vehicle and hit someone or something.
Only shift into gear when the engine is
idling normally and your foot is firmly
pressing the brake pedal.
Unintended movement of a vehicle could
injure those in or near the vehicle. As
with all vehicles, you should never exit a
vehicle while the engine is running.
Before exiting a vehicle, always apply the
park brake, shift the transmission into
PARK, and turn the ignition OFF. When
the ignition is in the OFF mode, the
transmission is locked in PARK,
securing the vehicle against unwanted
movement.
When leaving the vehicle, always make
sure the ignition is in the OFF mode,
remove the key fob from the vehicle, and
lock the vehicle.
Never leave children alone in a vehicle,
or with access to an unlocked vehicle.

warned not to touch the parking
brake, brake pedal or the transmission
gear selector.
Do not leave the key fob in or near the
vehicle (or in a location accessible to
children), and do not leave the ignition
in the ACC or ON/RUN mode. A child
could operate power windows, other
controls, or move the vehicle.
WARNING! (Continued)
CAUTION!
Damage to the transmission may occur if
the following precautions are not observed:
Shift into or out of PARK or REVERSE
only after the vehicle has come to a
complete stop.
Do not shift between PARK, REVERSE,
NEUTRAL, or DRIVE when the engine is
above idle speed.
Before shifting into any gear, make sure
your foot is firmly pressing the brake
pedal.
