NORMAL OPERATION
P (Park)
This position locks the transaxle and
prevents the front wheels from rotating.
Always come to a complete stop before
shifting into this position.
R (Reverse)
WARNING
Use this position to drive the vehicle
backward.
• Do not use the P (Park)
position in place of the
parking brake when leaving
the vehicle. Always make
sure the shift lever is latched
in the P (Park) position so
that it cannot be moved
unless the lock release
button is pushed in AND the
parking brake is fully set.
Turn the ignition switch OFF
whenever you leave the
vehicle unattended. Never
leave the vehicle unattended
while the engine is running.
Unexpected and sudden
vehicle movement may occur
if these precautions are not
taken.
CAUTION
Always come to a complete stop
before shifting into or out of R
(Reverse). You may damage the
transaxle if you shift into R while
the vehicle is in motion, except as
explained in “Rocking the Vehicle”.
WARNING
Shifting into P (Park) while the
vehicle is in motion will cause
the front wheels to lock and you
will lose driving control of the
vehicle.
•
N (Neutral)
In this position, the wheels and transaxle
are not locked. The vehicle will roll
freely even on the slightest incline unless
the parking brake or service brakes are
applied.
✻
NOTICE
The transaxle may be damaged if
you shift into P (Park) while the
vehicle is in motion.
D (Drive)
This is the normal forward driving
position. The transaxle will auto-
matically shift through a four-gear
sequence, providing the best fuel
economy and power.

Never
leave
a
child
unattended in a vehicle.
