2009 Kia Sedona Owners Manual

Driving your vehicle
Transaxle ranges
P (park)
Always come  to a  complete stop before
shifting into P  (Park). This position locks
the   transaxle  and   prevents   the  front
wheels from rotating.
N (neutral)
(Continued)
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.
Never leave a child unattended  in
a vehicle.
CAUTION
D (drive)
The  transaxle  may  be damaged  if
you  shift  into   P  (Park)  while  the
vehicle is in motion.
This is  the  normal forward  driving posi-
tion. The transaxle will automatically shift
through a 5-gear sequence, providing the
best fuel economy and power.
WARNING
Shifting  into  P  (Park)  while   the
vehicle is in motion will cause the
drive  wheels  to  lock  which  will
cause you  to  lose control  of the
vehicle.
Do not  use the  P (Park)  position
in  place   of  the   parking   brake.
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   set  the   parking  brake
fully.
Before  leaving  the  driver’s seat,
always make  sure  the shift  lever
is in  the  P (PARK)  position.   Set
the  parking brake  fully,  shut the
engine off  and  take the  key with
you.   Unexpected    and   sudden
vehicle  movement   can  occur  if
you  do not  follow  these precau-
tions in the order specified.
R (reverse)
Use  this  position   to  drive  the   vehicle
backward.
For  extra power  when  passing  another
vehicle or  climbing  grades, depress  the
accelerator   fully,   at   which   time    the
transaxle will  automatically  downshift to
the next lower gear.
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”,
in this manual.
NOTICE
Always come to a complete stop before
shifting into D (Drive).
