30 °C and away from direct

Transmission
Press the select button on the front
of the shift lever to move into any
position. The lever position is

Centre (DIC).
Note
The engine will not start unless the
shift lever is in position

P :
This position locks the front
wheels. Use P (Park) when starting
the engine because the vehicle
cannot move easily. Always move
the shift lever to P and apply the
electric parking brake before leaving
the vehicle.
Caution
Selecting position
P
while the
vehicle is still moving can cause
damage to the transmission.
Do not press the accelerator
pedal with the brakes applied in
any gear except position
P
or
N
.
This will overheat the
transmission.
The vehicle has an automatic
transmission shift lock control
system. Fully press the brake pedal
and then press the shift lever select
button before shifting from P when
the ignition is on.
If you cannot shift out of P, ease
pressure on the shift lever, then
push the shift lever all the way into
P as you maintain brake application.
Then press the shift lever button
and move the shift lever into
another gear.
