Over-Temperature Mode
The transmission electronics constantly monitor the
transmission oil temperature. If the transmission exceeds
normal operating temperature, the transmission will
change the way it shifts to help control the condition.
This may result in a slightly different feeling or response
during normal operation in DRIVE position. After the
transmission cools down, it will return to normal
operation.

Key Ignition Park Interlock

This vehicle is equipped with a Key Ignition Park Inter-
lock which requires the shift lever to be placed in PARK
prior to rotating the key fob to the LOCK position. The

key fob can only be removed from the ignition when the
ignition is in the LOCK position. Once the key fob is
removed, the shift lever is locked in PARK.

Brake/Transmission Shift Interlock System

This vehicle is equipped with a Brake Transmission Shift
Interlock (BTSI) system that holds the shift lever in the
PARK position when the ignition switch is in the LOCK
position (OFF position with Keyless Enter-N-Go) and the
engine is not running. To move the shift lever out of the
PARK position, the ignition switch must be turned to any
other ignition position (ACC, ON/RUN) position, and
the brake pedal must be pressed whether or not the
engine is running.
