To select a mode, move the gear selector
forward or rearward while pressing the
brake pedal. To engage REVERSE (R),
press the brake pedal together with the
gear selector button.
The gear selector is a joystick style
shifting mechanism which returns to the
center position automatically. It can be
pushed forward twice and rearward
twice, based on the starting condition.
The PARK (P) mode can be
enabled/disabled by pushing the PARK
(P) button. PARK (P) mode is
automatically activated if the following
conditions are met simultaneously:
DRIVE (D) mode or REVERSE (R) mode
is active
The vehicle’s speed is close to 0 mph
(0 km/h)
The brake pedal is released
The driver’s seat belt is not fastened
The driver’s door is open
To transition the vehicle into REVERSE
(R) mode from DRIVE (D) mode, or into
DRIVE (D) mode from REVERSE (R)
mode, it is necessary to move the gear
selector by pushing the gear selector
button.
When using AutoStick, activate it by
moving the gear selector from DRIVE (D)
to the left and then forward toward the -
symbol or backward toward the + symbol
and the gear is changed.
To shift out of PARK (P), or to pass from
position NEUTRAL (N) to position DRIVE
(D) or REVERSE (R), the vehicle must be
moving at a low speed or stopped, and
the brake pedal must also be pressed.
Note:
DO NOTaccelerate while shifting
from position PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N)
to another position.
After selecting a gear, wait a few
seconds before accelerating. This
precaution is particularly important with
engine cold.
It is not possible to select NEUTRAL
(N) mode from PARK (P) mode.
Transmission Operating Modes
PARK (P)
The transmission is locked in this mode.
The engine can be started in this mode.
Note: Never try to engage PARK (P)
mode when the vehicle is moving. Before
leaving the vehicle, make sure this mode
is engaged (letter P shown on the display
and gear selector) and that the park
brake is engaged.
When parking on a flat surface, first
engage the PARK (P) mode and then
engage the electric park brake.
When parking uphill, before activating
the PARK (P) mode, engage the electric
park brake. Otherwise, it could be
difficult to engage the (P) mode.
To check that the PARK (P) mode is
actually engaged, make sure (P) is
illuminated on the display and on the gear
selector.
Warning!
Never use the PARK position as a
substitute for the park brake. Always apply
the park brake fully when parked to guard
against vehicle movement and possible
injury or damage.
Your vehicle could move and injure you
and others if it is not in PARK. Check by
trying to move the gear selector out of
PARK with the brake pedal released. Make
sure the transmission is in PARK before
leaving the vehicle.
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.
