Moving up a steep grade from a
standing start
Shift lock system
For your  safety, the Automatic  Transaxle
has  a shift  lock  system  which  prevents
shifting  the   transaxle   out  of  P   (Park)
unless the brake  pedal is depressed.
To move up  a steep grade  from a stand-
ing  start, depress  the  brake pedal,  shift
the  shift  lever  to  D  (Drive).  Select  the
appropriate    gear   depending   on   load
weight and  steepness  of the  grade, and
release  the  parking  brake. Depress  the
accelerator gradually  while releasing  the
service brakes.
When  accelerating  from  a stop on  a
steep hill, the  vehicle may have  a ten-
dency to roll backwards.    Shifting the
shift lever  into 2  (Second Gear)  while
in  Sport  mode  will  help  prevent  the
vehicle from rolling  backwards.
To shift the transaxle  out of P (Park):
1.
2.
Depress and  hold the brake pedal.
Start the  engine or  turn the ignition  to
the ON position.
3.
If
depressed  and   released  with  the  shift
lever in the P (Park) position, a chattering
sound near  the shift lever may be  heard.
This is a normal  condition.
