Driving your vehicle
Moving up asteep   grade from a
standing start
Shift locksystem
Ignition key interlock system
For     your     safety,     the     Automatic
Transmission  has   a  shift  lock   system
which prevents shifting the transmission
out of P (Park) unless the brake pedal is
depressed.
The  ignition   key   cannot  be   removed
unless  the  shift  lever  is  in  the  P  (Park)
position. If  the  ignition  switch  is  in  any
other   position,    the    key   cannot    be
removed.
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 transmission out of P (Park):
1.
2.
Depress and hold the brake pedal.
Start the engine or turn the ignition to
the ACC or ON position.
3.
Depress  the  lock  release  button  and
move the shift lever.
When the ignition switch is in the LOCK
position,   the  transmission   cannot   be
shifted from P (Park).
If    the    brake    pedal    is    repeatedly
depressed  and  released  with  the  shift
lever in the P (Park) position, a chattering
noise near the shift lever may be heard.
This is a normal condition.
