brakes to wear out
quickly and reduce fuel
economy.

Firm shock absorber performance enhances ride and
handling during certain road conditions. The shock
absorber is returned to a softer performance when
driver or road induced motion ceases. This system is
automatic and requires no driver input.

Brake-shift interlock
This vehicle is equipped with a brake-shift interlock
feature that prevents the gearshift from being moved
from P (Park) unless the brake pedal is pressed.
If you cannot move the gearshift out of P (Park)
with the brake pedal depressed:
1.
Apply the parking brake, turn ignition key to
LOCK, then remove the key.
2.
Insert the key and turn it to OFF. Apply the brake
pedal and shift to N (Neutral) .
3.
Start the vehicle.
If it is necessary to use the above procedure to
move the gearshift, it is possible that a fuse has
blown and the vehicle’s brake lamps may not be
operating properly. Refer to Fu ses and rela ys in the
Roadside emergen cies chapter.
