Warning!
If you hear a warning signal and the
message Release parking brake
appears in the multifunction display
when driving off, you have forgotten to
release the parking brake.
Simultaneously depressing the acceler-
ator pedal and applying the brake re-
duces engine performance and causes
premature brake and drivetrain wear.
It is dangerous to shift the automatic trans-
mission out of P or 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 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 when
your right foot is firmly on the brake pedal.
For more information, see “Driving instruc-
tions” (୴ page 299).
Release the parking brake.
After a cold start, the automatic transmis-
sion shifts at a higher engine revolution.
This allows the catalytic converter to reach
its operating temperature earlier.
For information on off-road driving, see
“Off-road driving” (୴ page 306).
!
Warning!
G
Shift automatic transmission to
position P or R only when the vehicle is
stopped in order to avoid damaging the
transmission.
On slippery road surfaces, never downshift
in order to obtain braking action. This could
result in drive wheel slip and reduced vehi-
cle control. Your vehicle’s ABS will not pre-
vent this type of loss of control.
!
Do not run cold engine at high engine
speeds. Running a cold engine at high
engine speeds may shorten the service
life of the engine.
