After placing the vehicle in the READY to drive

If the power switch is placed in the OFF or ACC

the power switch cannot be placed in the LOCK

If the power switch cannot be placed in the

WARNING
• The shift lever is always in the center
position when released. When the
power switch is placed in the READY
to drive position, the driver needs to
confirm that the vehicle is in the P
(Park) position. The indicator next to
the “P” by the shift lever is illuminated
and the “P” is displayed on the meter.
If the vehicle is in the D (Drive) position
or R (Reverse) position when the
power switch is placed in the READY
to drive position, this may cause a sud-
den start which could result in an acci-
dent.
• On a hilly road, do not allow the vehicle
to roll backwards while in the D (Drive)
position or ECO position, or allow the
vehicle to roll forward while in the R
(Reverse) position. This may cause an
accident.
