Driving your vehicle
Automatic transaxle operation
For smooth operation, depress the brake
pedal when shifting from N (Neutral) to a
forward or reverse gear.
CAUTION
The highly efficient automatic transaxle
has 4 forward speeds and one reverse
speed. The individual speeds are select-
ed automatically, depending on the posi-
tion of the shift lever.
All normal forward driving is done with
the shift lever in the D (Drive) position.
To move the shift lever from the P (Park)
position, the brake pedal must be
depressed with the ignition switch ON.
