Driving and Operating 73
Electric Drive Unit
The vehicle uses an electric drive unit. The
shift pattern is displayed on the top of the
shift lever. The selected gear position
illuminates red on the shift lever, while all
others will be displayed in white. If the shift
is not immediate, as in very cold conditions,
the indicator on the shift switch may blink
until it is fully engaged.
If POWER
O
is pressed twice while at a
relatively high speed, the vehicle will turn
off and automatically shift to N (Neutral).
Once the vehicle is stopped, P (Park) can be
selected.
P : This position locks the drive wheels. Use
P (Park) when starting the vehicle to prevent
the vehicle from moving easily.
{
Warning
It is dangerous to get out of the vehicle
if the vehicle is not in P (Park) with the
parking brake set. The vehicle can roll.
Do not leave the vehicle when the
propulsion system is on. If you have left
the propulsion system on, the vehicle can
move suddenly. You or others could be
injured. To be sure the vehicle will not
move, even when you are on fairly level
ground, always set the parking brake and
press the P (Park) button. See
Shifting
Into Park 0 71
. If you are towing a trailer,
see the owner's manual.
The shift lock release button is designed to
prevent inadvertent shifting out of P (Park)
unless the vehicle is on, the brake pedal is
applied, and the shift lock release button is
pressed.
When the vehicle is stopped, press
POWER
O
to turn off the vehicle. The
vehicle will shift to P (Park) automatically.
The vehicle will not shift into P (Park) if it is
moving too fast. Stop the vehicle and shift
into P (Park).
