Changing shift ranges to “P” position
Push the “P” position switch with
the brake pedal pressed down.
The “P” position icon is displayed
on the instrument cluster, and the
indicator on the “P” position
switch comes on.
You can only shift to other posi-
tions from “P” when the brake
pedal is depressed.
When parking, check that the “P”
position icon is displayed on the
instrument cluster, and release
the brake pedal gently after

Using engine brake
To use the engine braking, shift the shift lever to “B” position.
●
During high speed driving, you may feel that deceleration by engine brak-
ing is less than that of a typical vehicle.
●
Do not continue normal driving with the transmission in “B” for a long
time.
This may cause decreased fuel economy. To prevent this, use “D” for
normal driving.
