Transaxle ranges
P (park)
This position locks the transaxle and
prevents the front wheels from rotat-
ing. Always come to a complete stop
before shifting into this position.
✽✽
NOTICE
The transaxle may be damaged if
you shift into P (Park) while thevehicle is in motion.
(Continued)
Before leaving the driver’s seat, always make sure the
shift lever is in the P (PARK)
position. Set the parking
brake fully, shut the engine off

Unexpected and sudden vehi-
cle movement can occur if you
do not follow these precau-
tions in the order specified.

the drive wheels to lock which
will cause you to lose control
of the vehicle.

the wheels and transaxle are not
locked. The vehicle will roll freely
even on the slightest incline unless
the parking brake or service brakesare applied.

which time the transaxle will auto-
matically downshift to the next lower

Moving up a steep grade from
a standing start
To move up a steep grade from a
standing start, depress the brake
pedal, shift the shift lever to D
(Drive). Select the appropriate gear
depending on load weight and steep-
ness of the grade, and release the
parking brake. Depress the accelera-
tor gradually while releasing the
service brakes. Shift lock system (if equipped)
For your safety, the Automatic
Transaxle has a shift lock system
which prevents shifting the transaxle
out of P (Park) unless the brakepedal is depressed.
To shift the transaxle out of P (Park):
1. Depress and hold the brake pedal.
2. Depress the lock release button
and move the shift lever.

shift lever in the P (Park) position, a
chattering sound near the shift lever
may be heard. This is a normal con-dition. Ignition key interlock system (if equipped)

(Park) position. If the ignition switch
is in any other position, the key can-
not be removed.

Driving your vehicle
Anti-lock brake system (ABS) (if equipped)The ABS system continuously sens-
es the speed of the wheels. If the
wheels are going to lock, the ABSsystem repeatedly modulates the
hydraulic brake pressure to the
wheels.
When you apply your brakes under
conditions which may lock the
wheels, you may hear a “tik-tik’’
sound from the brakes, or feel a cor-
responding sensation in the brake
pedal. This is normal and it means
your ABS system is active.
In order to obtain the maximum ben-
efit from your ABS system in anemergency situation, do not attempt
to modulate your brake pressure and
do not try to pump your brakes.
Press your brake pedal as hard as
possible or as hard as the situation
warrants and allow the ABS system
to control the force being delivered to
the brakes.
WARNING
- ABS Brakes
Your ABS is not a substitute for
good driving judgement. You
can still have an accident. In
fact, your ABS system will prob-
ably not be able to prevent an
accident in the following drivingconditions:
Dangerous driving, such as neglecting safety precautions,
speeding, or driving too close
to the vehicle in front of you.
Driving at high speed in situa- tions providing considerably
less traction, such as wet con-
ditions where hydroplaning
could occur.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Driving too fast on poor roadsurfaces. The ABS is
designed to improve maxi-
mum braking effectiveness on
typical highways and roads in
good condition. On poor roadsurfaces in poor condition,
the ABS may actually reduce
braking effectiveness.
