Shift-lock override
If the shift lever cannot be moved from
the P (Park) position into R (Reverse) position with the brake pedal de‐
pressed, continue depressing the brake,
then do the following: 1. Place the engine start/stop button switch in the LOCK/OFF position.
2. Apply the parking brake.
3. Carefully remove the cap (1) cover‐ ing the shift-lock release access
hole.

Good driving practices
• Never move the shift lever from P (Park) or N (Neutral) to any other po‐
sition with the accelerator pedal de‐ pressed. • Never move the shift lever into P
(Park) when the vehicle is in motion.
• Be sure the vehicle is completely stopped before you attempt to shift
into R (Reverse) or D (Drive).
• Never take the vehicle out of gear and coast down a hill. This may beextremely hazardous. Always leave
the vehicle in gear when moving.
• Do not "ride" the brakes. This can cause them to overheat and malfunc‐
tion. Instead, when you are driving
down a long hill, slow down and shift to a lower gear. When you do this,
engine braking will help slow down
the vehicle.
• Slow down before shifting to a lower gear. Otherwise, the lower gear maynot be engaged.
• Always use the parking brake. Do not depend on placing the transaxle in P
(Park) to keep the vehicle from mov‐
ing. • Exercise extreme caution when driv‐
ing on a slippery surface. Be especial‐ly careful when braking, accelerating
or shifting gears. On a slippery sur‐
face, an abrupt change in vehicle
speed can cause the drive wheels to
lose traction and the vehicle to go out of control.
• Optimum vehicle performance and economy is obtained by smoothly de‐
pressing and releasing the accelera‐
tor pedal.
WARNING
•Always buckle-up! In a collision, anunbelted occupant is significantlymore likely to be seriously injuredor killed than a properly belted oc‐cupant.
•Avoid high speeds when corneringor turning.
•Do not make quick steering wheelmovements, such as sharp lanechanges or fast, sharp turns.
•The risk of rollover is greatly in‐creased if you lose control of yourvehicle at highway speeds.
