To shift from any position, press
firmly on the brake pedal. You
cannot shift out of Park when the
ignition switch is in the LOCK (0) or
ACCESSORY (I) position.

These indicators on the instrument
panel show which position the shift
lever is in. The illuminated number
under the tachometer shows you the
gear you have selected in the
Sequential SportShift mode.

The ‘‘D’’ indicator comes on for a
few seconds when you turn the
ignition switch to the ON (II)
position. If it flashes while driving (in
any shift position), it indicates a

possible problem in the transmission.

If the malfunction indicator lamp
comes on along with the ‘‘D’’
indicator, there is a problem with the
automatic transmission control
system. Avoid rapid acceleration and
have the transmission checked by
your dealer as soon as possible.
