Gear selector lever
Warning!
G
The gear selector lever is located on the
right of the steering column.
It is dangerous to shift the transmission out
of park position P or neutral position N if the
engine speed is higher than idle speed. If
your foot is not firmly on the brake pedal,
the vehicle could accelerate quickly forward
or reverse. You could lose control of the
vehicle and hit someone or something. Only
shift into gear when the engine is idling
normally and when your right foot is firmly
on the brake pedal.
Your vehicle’s transmission adapts its gear
shifting process to your individual driving
style by continually adjusting the shift
points up or down. These shift point adjust-
ments are performed based on current
operating and driving conditions.
If the operating conditions change, the
automatic transmission reacts by
adjusting its shift program.

Gearshift pattern for automatic
transmission
Shifting from P to N
During the brief warm-up, transmission
upshifting is delayed. This allows the
catalytic converter to heat up more
quickly to operating temperature.

shifts the automatic transmission out of
park position P:
P Park position
R Reverse gear
N Neutral
D Drive position
̈ Depress the brake pedal and keep it
pressed.
̈
Move gear selector lever up or down to
resistance point to select neutral
position N.
