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 Go™) to
the ON position (RUN position with Keyless 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 if you must
leave the vehicle.
