Shift Lever Position Indicators
These indicators on the instrument
panel show which position the shift
lever is in.
The ‘‘D’’ indicator comes on for a few
seconds when you turn the ignition
switch to the ON (II) position. If it
flashes while driving (in any shift

problem in the transmission. Avoid
rapid acceleration, and have the
transmission checked by your dealer
as soon as possible.
