WARNING!
Never use the PARK position as a sub-
st
itute for the parking brake.Always ap-
ply the parking 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 completely in PARK. Check by
trying to move the shift lever out of PARK wi th
the brake pedal released. Make sure the trans-
mission is in PARK before leaving the vehicle.
It is dangerous to shift out of PARK or NEU-
TRAL if the engine speed is higher than idle
speed.If your foot is not firmly pressing the brake
pedal, the vehicle could accelerate quickly for-
ward or in reverse.You could lose control of the
vehicle and hit someone or something. Only shift
into gear when the engine is idling normally and
your foot is firmly pressing the brake pedal.

Unintended movement of a vehicle could injure
those in or near the vehicle. As with all vehicles,
you should never exit a vehicle while the engine is
running. Before exit ing a vehicle, always apply
the parking brake, shift the transmission into
PARK, turn the engine OFF, and remove the Key
Fob.When the ignition is in the OFF position, the
transmission is locked in the PARK, secur ing the
vehicle against unwanted movement.
When leaving the vehicle,always make sure the
ignition is in the OFF position,remove the key fob
from the vehicle, and lock the vehicle.
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing children
to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a
number of reasons. A child or others could be
seriously or fatally injured. Children should be
warned not to touch the parking brake, brake
pedal or the shift lever.
Do not leave the Key Fob in or near the vehicle
(or in a location accessible to children), and do
