qTransmission Ranges

The shift lever must be in P or N to

operate the starter.

P (Park)

P locks the transmission and prevents the

rear wheels from rotating.

WARNING

Always set the shift lever to P and set

the parking brake:

Only setting the shift lever to the P

position without using the parking

brake to hold the vehicle is

dangerous. If P fails to hold, the

vehicle could move and cause an

accident.

CAUTION

Ø Shifting into P, N or R while the

vehicle is moving can damage

your transmission.

Ø Shifting into a driving gear or

reverse when th e engine is running

faster than idle can damage the

transmission.

R (Reverse)

In position R, the vehicle moves only

backward. You must be at a complete stop

before shifting to or from R, except under

rare circumstances as explained in

Rocking the Vehicle (page 4-8).

N (Neutral)

In N, the wheels and transmission are not

locked. The vehicle will roll freely even

on the slightest incline unless the parking

brake or brakes are on.

WARNING

If the engine is running faster than idle,

do not shift from N or P into a driving

gear:

It's dangerous to shift from N or P

into a driving gear when the engine

is running faster than idle. If this is

done, the vehicle could move

suddenly, causing an accident or

serious injury.

Do not shift into N when driving the

vehicle:

Shifting into N while driving is

dangerous. Engine braking cannot be

applied when decelerating which

could lead to an accident or serious

injury.

CAUTION

Do not shift into N when driving the

vehicle. Doing so can cause

transmission damage.

NOTE

Apply the parking brake or depress the brake

pedal before moving the shift lever from N to

prevent the vehicle from moving unexpectedly.

D (Drive)

D is the normal driving position. From a

stop, the transmission will automatically

shift through a 6-gear sequence.

Temporary use of the direct mode is

possible.

Refer to Direct Mode on page 5-19.

M (Manual )

M is the manual shift mode position.

Gears can be shifted up or down by

operating the shift lever or steering shift

switches.

Refer to Manual Shift Mode (page 5-15).
