parking brake or depress the brake pedal.
Do not increase the engine revolutions to
ensure smooth idling while standing if a drive
range has been selected.

period, e.g. in traffic jams or at level cross-
ings.
Before leaving the vehicle, apply parking
brake, then place selector lever in position

free it from sand, mud, snow or a hole, move
the selector lever from "D

peat pattern while simultaneously applying
light pressure to the accelerator pedal. Do
not race the engine and avoid sudden ac-
celeration.
This applies only to the exceptional circum-
stances mentioned above.

attempts to park or in garage entrances uti-
lize the above-mentioned creeping effect.

brake pedal.

als simultaneously.
