Understanding gearshift positions

Hold the brake pedal down while you move the gearshift lever

from P (Park) to another position. If you do not hold the brake

pedal down, your vehicle may move unexpectedly and injure someone.

P (Park)

Always come to a complete stop

before shifting into P (Park). Make

sure that the gearshift lever is

securely latched in P (Park). This

locks the transaxle and prevents the

front wheels from rotating.

Always set the parking

brake fully and make sure

the gearshift lever is latched in P

(Park). Turn off the ignition

whenever you leave your vehicle.

R (Reverse)

With the gearshift lever in R

(Reverse), the vehicle will move

backward. You should always come

to a complete stop before shifting in

and out of R (Reverse).
