Gear Ranges

DO NOT race the engine when shifting from PARK or

NEUTRAL into another gear range.

NOTE:

• After selecting any gear range, wait a moment to allow

the selected gear to engage before accelerating. This is

especially important when the engine is cold.

• If there is a need to restart the engine, be sure to cycle

the ignition to the OFF position before restarting.

Transmission gear engagement may be delayed after

restarting the engine if the ignition is not cycled to the

OFF position first.

PARK (P)
This range supplements the parking brake by locking the

transmission. The engine can be started in this range.

Never attempt to use PARK while the vehicle is in

motion. Apply the parking brake when leaving the

vehicle in this range.
