from P (Park) to any other position
with the accelerator pedal
depressed.
• Never move the gear shift lever into
P (Park) when the vehicle is in

• Slow down before shifting to a
lower gear. Otherwise, the lower

• Always use the parking brake. Do
not depend on placing the trans-

economy is obtained by smoothly
