1. Keep the foot brake pedal depressed and

shift into a driving range.

2. Release the parking brake and foot brake,

then gradually start the vehicle in motion.

WARNING

¼ Do not depress the accelerator pedal

while shifting from P or Nto R, or D.
Always depress the brake pedal until
shifting is completed. Failure to do
so could cause you to lose control
and have an accident.

¼ Cold engine idle speed is high, so use

caution when shifting into a forward
or reverse range before the engine
has warmed up.

¼ On slippery roads, do not downshift.

This may cause a loss of control.

¼ Never shift to P or R while the vehicle

is moving. This could cause you to
lose control and have an accident.

CAUTION

When stopping the vehicle on an uphill
grade, do not hold the vehicle by de-
pressing the accelerator pedal. The foot
brakes should be used for this purpose.

Shifting

After starting the engine, fully depress the brake

pedal and shift the selector lever from P (Park) to

R (Reverse), D (Drive), or any of the desired shift

positions.

WARNING

Apply the parking brake if the selector
lever is in any position while the engine
is not running. Failure to do so could
cause the vehicle to move unexpectedly
