.Do not downshift abruptly on slip-
pery roads. This may cause a loss of
control.
CAUTION
.Except in an emergency, do not shift
to the N (Neutral) position while
driving. Coasting with the transmis-
sion in the N (Neutral) position may
cause serious damage to the trans-
mission.
. To avoid possible damage to your
vehicle; when stopping the vehicle
on an uphill grade, do not hold the
vehicle by depressing the accelera-
tor pedal. The foot brake should be
used for this purpose.
SSD0945Shift lever
To move the shift lever,
: Push the button while depressing the brake
pedal,
: Push the button,
: Just move the shift lever.
Shifting
The shift lever position indicator light (next to the
shift lever) will be illuminated for approximately
30 minutes after the ignition switch is turned off.
The indicator light may also illuminate when the
vehicle receives radio waves. This is not a
malfunction.
After starting the engine, fully depress the brake
pedal and shift the shift lever from P (Park) to R (Reverse) , N (Neutral) , D (Drive) or Manual shift
mode position.
Push the button to shift into P (Park) or R
(Reverse) . All other positions can be selected
without pushing the button.
WARNING
Apply the parking brake if the shift lever
is in any position while the engine is
not running. Failure to do so could
cause the vehicle to move unexpectedly
or roll away and result in serious
personal injury or property damage.
CAUTION
Make sure the vehicle is completely
stopped and the transmission is in the
P (Park) position.
P (Park) position:
Use this position when the vehicle is parked or
when starting the engine. Make sure the vehicle
is completely stopped. The brake pedal must
be depressed and the shift lever button
pushed in to move the shift lever from the

N (Neutral) position or any drive position to
the P (Park) position.Apply the parking brake.
When parking on a hill, apply the parking brake
first, then move the shift lever to the P (Park)
position.
CAUTION
Use this position only when the vehicle
is completely stopped.
R (Reverse):
Use this position to back up. Always be sure the
vehicle is completely stopped before selecting
the R (Reverse) position. The brake pedal
must be depressed and the shift lever
button pushed in to move the shift lever
from the P (Park) position, the N (Neutral)
position or any drive position to the R
(Reverse) position.
N (Neutral):
Neither forward nor reverse gear is engaged.
The engine can be started in this position. You
may shift to the N (Neutral) position and restart a
stalled engine while the vehicle is moving.
D (Drive):
Use this position for all normal forward driving.
Manual shift mode
When the shift lever is in the manual shift gate,
the transmission is ready for the manual shift
mode. Shift ranges can be selected manually by
moving the shift lever up or down.
When shifting up, move the shift lever to the +
(up) side. The transmission shifts to the higher
range.
When shifting down, move the shift lever to the
í (down) side. The transmission shifts to the
lower range.
When canceling the manual shift mode, return
the shift lever to the D (Drive) position. The
transmission returns to the normal driving mode.
In the manual shift mode, the shift range is
displayed on the position indicator in the meter. Shift ranges up or down one by one as follows:M1
?
/M2?
/M3?
/M4?
/M5?
/M6?
/M7
M7 (7th):
Use this position for all normal forward driving at
highway speeds.
M6 (6th) andM5 (5th):
Use these positions when driving up long
slopes, or for engine braking when driving down
long slopes.
M4 (4th) ,M3 (3rd) andM2 (2nd):
Use these positions for hill climbing or engine
braking on downhill grades.
M1 (1st):
Use this position when climbing steep hills
slowly or driving slowly through deep snow, or
for maximum engine braking on steep downhill
grades.
. Remember not to drive at high speeds for
extended periods of time in lower than 7th
gear. This reduces fuel economy.
. Moving the shift lever rapidly to the same
side twice will shift the ranges in succes-
sion.
. In the manual shift mode, the transmis-
sion may not shift to the selected gear
or may automatically shift to the other
