NOTE:

• Steps 1 through 5 are requirements that must be met

prior to pressing the NEUTRAL (N) button, and must
continue to be met until the four seconds elapse and
the shift has been completed. If any of these require-
ments are not met prior to pressing the NEUTRAL (N)
button or are no longer met during the four second
timer, then the NEUTRAL (N) indicator light will flash
continuously until all requirements are met or until the
NEUTRAL (N) button is released.

• A flashing NEUTRAL (N) position indicator light

indicates that shift requirements have not been met.
