WARNING! (Continued)
•
Unintended movement of a vehicle could injure
those in and near the vehicle. As with all vehicles,
you should never exit a vehicle while the engine is
running. Before exiting a vehicle, you should
always shift the vehicle into PARK, remove the
key from the ignition, and apply the parking
brake. Once the key is removed from the ignition,
the shift lever is locked in the PARK position,
securing the vehicle against unwanted movement.
Furthermore, you should never leave children un-
attended inside a vehicle.
Brake/Transaxle Interlock System
This system prevents you from moving the shift lever out
of PARK and into any gear unless the brake pedal is
pressed. This system is active only while the ignition
switch is in the ON position. Always press the brake
pedal first, before moving the shift lever out of PARK.
NOTE: If a malfunction occurs, the transaxle will not
shift out of PARK. Battery power is required to release the
Brake/Transaxle Interlock system. However, an override
system allows you to shift out of PARK in case of loss of
power. To activate the override system:
•
Firmly apply the parking brake.
•
Insert the ignition key into the ignition key lock
cylinder and rotate it to the ON position.
•
Remove the cup holder liner.
•
Insert a key, screwdriver, or finger into the hole at the
front of the cup holder and push and hold the manual
override release lever forward.
•
While holding the release lever forward, move the
shift lever from PARK to NEUTRAL.
•
Release the manual override.
