Shifting
After starting the engine, fully depress the brake
pedal and shift the shift lever from P (Park) to R
(Reverse), N (Neutral), D (Drive), Manual shift
mode or any of the desired shift positions.
WARNING
Apply the parking brake if the shift lever
is in any position while the engine is not
running. Failure to do so could cause
the vehicle to move unexpectedly
or roll away and result in serious per-
sonal injury or property damage.
If the ignition switch is turned to OFF or ACC for
any reason while the vehicle is in R (Reverse), N
(Neutral), or any D (Drive) position, the key
cannot be turned to LOCK and be removed from
the ignition switch. Additionally, the shift lever
cannot be moved to R (Reverse) from N (Neu-
tral) or any D (Drive) position for about 3 minutes
after the ignition switch is turned to the ACC or
OFF position. The shift lever can be moved from
R (Reverse) to P (Park) with the key in the OFF
or ACC position. If this occurs, perform the
following steps:
1. Apply the parking brake when the vehicle is
stopped.
2. Turn the key to ON.
3. Depress the foot brake pedal if the vehicle is
in the N (Neutral) or any D (Drive) position.
4. If necessary, move the shift lever to P (Park)
or N (Neutral) to restart the vehicle (P is
preferred) or move the shift lever to P (Park)
to park the vehicle.
5. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK to remove
the key.
P (Park):
Use this shift position when the vehicle is parked
or when starting the engine. Make sure the
vehicle is completely stopped. For maximum
safety, depress the brake pedal, then move the
lever to the P (Park) position. The brake pedal
must be depressed any time the shift lever
is moved to P (Park). Apply the parking brake.
When parking on a hill, apply the parking brake
first, then move the lever to the P (Park) position.
CAUTION
Use this position only when the vehicle
is completely stopped.
R (Reverse):
Use this position to back up. Always be sure the
vehicle is completely stopped when selecting R
(Reverse). The brake pedal must be de-
pressed to move the shift lever from P
(Park) to R (Reverse).
The shift lever can be moved to R (Reverse) from
any of the D (Drive) positions within 3 minutes
after the ignition switch is turned to the ACC or
OFF position.
