AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION

CAUTION!

Damage to the transmission may occur if the follow-
ing precautions are not observed:
Shift into PARK only after the vehicle has come to

a complete stop.

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 something. Only shift
into gear when the engine is idling normally and
when your foot is firmly pressing on the brake
pedal.
