CAUTION! (Continued)

Shift into or out of REVERSE only after the

vehicle has come to a complete stop and the engine
is at idle speed.

Do not shift between PARK, REVERSE, NEU-

TRAL, or DRIVE when the engine is above idle
speed.

Before shifting into any gear, make sure your foot

is firmly pressing on the brake pedal.

NOTE:

You MUST press and hold the brake pedal while

shifting out of PARK.

WARNING!

It is dangerous to move the shift lever out of PARK

or NEUTRAL if the engine speed is higher than
idle speed. If your foot is not firmly pressing on
the brake pedal, the vehicle could accelerate
quickly forward or in reverse. You could lose
control of the vehicle and hit someone or some-
thing. Only shift into gear when the engine is
idling normally and when your foot is firmly
pressing on the brake pedal.
