Parking
E00600601505
To
park the vehicle, fully engage the parking
brake, and then move the gearshift lever to 1 st
or
“R” (Reverse) position for vehicles equipped with
M/T, or set the selector lever to “P” (PARK) posi-
tion for vehicles equipped with CVT.
Parking on a hill
To prevent the vehicle from rolling, follow these
procedures:
Parking on a downhill slope
Turn the front wheels towards the kerb and move
the vehicle forward until the kerb side wheel gently
touches the kerb.
On vehicles equipped with M/T, apply the parking
brake and place the gearshift lever into the “R” (Re-
verse) position.
On vehicles equipped with CVT, apply the parking
brake and place the selector lever into the “P”
(PARK) position.
If necessary, apply chocks to wheels.
Parking on an uphill slope
Turn the front wheels away from the kerb and
move the vehicle back until the kerb side wheel gen-
tly touches the kerb.
On vehicles equipped with M/T, apply the parking
brake and place the gearshift lever into the 1 st
posi-
tion.
On vehicles equipped with CVT, apply the parking
brake and place the selector lever into the “P”
(PARK) position.
If necessary, apply chocks to wheels. NOTE
l If
your vehicle is equipped with CVT, be
sure to apply the parking brake before mov-
ing selector lever to the “P” (PARK) posi-
tion. If you move the selector lever to the
“P” (PARK) position before applying the
parking brake, it may be difficult to disen-
gage the selector lever from the “P” (PARK)
position when next you drive the vehicle, re-
quiring application of a strong force to the se-
lector lever to move from the “P” (PARK) po-
sition.
Parking with the engine running
Never leave the engine running while you take a
short sleep/rest. Also, never leave the engine run-
ning in a closed or poorly ventilated place. WARNING
l Leaving
the engine running risks injury
or death from accidentally moving the
gearshift lever (M/T) or the selector lever
(CVT) or the accumulation of toxic ex-
haust fumes on the passenger compart-
ment.
Where you park WARNING
l Do
not park your vehicle in areas where
combustible materials such as dry grass
or leaves can come in contact with a hot
exhaust, since a fire could occur. Do not keep the steering wheel fully
turned for a long time
More

effort could be required to turn the steering
wheel.
Refer to “Electric power steering system (EPS)” on
page 4-41.
When leaving the vehicle
Always carry the key and lock all doors and the tail-
gate when leaving the vehicle unattended.
Always try to park your vehicle in a well lit area. Starting and driving

CAUTION
l
Do not drive the vehicle with the mirror
folded in.
The lack of rearward visibility normally
provided by the mirror could lead to an
accident.
[Except
for vehicles equipped with the mirror re-
tractor switch]
Push the mirror towards the back of the vehicle
with your hand to retract it in. When extending the
mirror, pull it out towards the front of the vehicle
until it clicks to lock in place. [For
vehicles equipped with the mirror retrac-
tor switch]
Retracting and extending the mirrors using the
mirror retractor switch
With the ignition switch or the operation mode in
ON or ACC, push the mirror retractor switch to re-
tract the mirrors.
Push it again to extend the mirrors to their original
positions. After turning the ignition switch to the “LOCK” po-
sition

or putting the operation mode in OFF, it is
possible to retract and extend the mirrors using the
mirror retractor switch for about 30 seconds. CAUTION
l
It
is possible to retract and extend the mir-
rors by hand. After retracting a mirror us-
ing the mirror retractor switch, however,
you should extend it by using the switch
again, not by hand. If you extended the
mirror by hand after retracting it using
the switch, it would not properly lock in
position. As a result, it could move be-
cause of the wind or vibration while you
are driving, taking away your rearward
visibility.
NOTE l Be

careful not to get your hands trapped
while a mirror is moving. l
If
you move a mirror by hand or it moves af-
ter hitting a person or object, you may not be
able to return it to its original position using
the mirror retractor switch. If this happens,
push the mirror retractor switch to place the
mirror in its retracted position and then push
the switch again to return the mirror to its orig-
inal position.
l When freezing has occurred and mirrors fail
to operate as intended, please refrain from re-
peated pushing of the retractor switch as this
action can result in burn-out of the mirror mo-
tor circuits.
Retracting and extending the mirrors without us-
ing the mirror retractor switch
[Vehicles with keyless entry system]
The mirrors automatically retract or extend when
the doors are locked or unlocked using the remote
control switches of the keyless entry system.
Refer to “Keyless entry system” on page 1-04.
