WARNING

. Do not stop or park the vehicle over

flammable materials such as dry
grass, waste paper or rags. They
may ignite and cause a fire.

. Safe parking procedures require

that both the parking brake be set
and the transmission placed into P
(Park). Failure to do so could cause
the vehicle to move unexpectedly or
roll away and result in an accident.
Make sure the selector lever has
been pushed as far forward as it can

go and cannot be moved without
depressing the foot brake pedal.

. Never leave the engine running

while the vehicle is unattended.

. Do not leave children unattended

inside the vehicle. They could un-
knowingly activate switches or con-
trols. Unattended children could
become involved in serious acci-
dents.

1. Firmly apply the parking brake.

2. Move the selector lever to the P (Park)

position.

3. To help prevent the vehicle from rolling into

traffic when parked on an incline, it is a good
practice to turn the wheels as illustrated.
