WARNING!

Never use the PARK position as a substitute for the
parking brake. Always apply the parking brake fully
when parked to guard against vehicle movement and
possible injury or damage.

The following indicators should be used to ensure that

you have engaged the shift lever in the PARK position:

• When shifting into PARK, move the shift lever all the

way forward and to the left until it stops and is fully

seated.

• Look at the shift indicator display on the instrument

panel to ensure it is in the PARK position.

CAUTION!

Damage to the shifter could result if the shift lever is
moved out of PARK before the ignition is turned
from the LOCK (OFF position with Keyless Enter-N-
Go) to the ON position (RUN position with Keyless
Enter-N-Go).

REVERSE
This range is for moving the vehicle backward. Use only

after the vehicle has come to a complete stop.
NEUTRAL
This range is used when vehicle is standing for pro-

longed periods with engine running. Engine may be

started in this range. Set the parking brake and shift the

transmission into PARK if you must leave the vehicle.
