Park position
Shift into park position
P
only
when vehicle is stopped. The
park position is not intended to
serve as a brake when the vehi-
cle is parked. Rather, the driver
should always set the parking
brake in addition to shifting into
park position
P
to secure the
vehicle.
If the vehicle’s electrical system
is malfunctioning, the automatic
transmission could remain
locked in park position

SmartKey:
If you turn off the engine using the SmartKey and
remove the SmartKey from the starter switch,
the transmission will shift to park position
P
automatically. Keep in mind that turning off the
engine with the SmartKey alone will not auto-
matically shift the transmission to park
position

from the starter switch, will the transmission
automatically shift to park position
P
.
KEYLESS-GO*:
If you turn off the engine using the KEYLESS-GO
start/stop button and open the driver’s door, the
transmission will shift to park position
P
auto-
matically. Keep in mind that turning off the en-
gine using the KEYLESS-GO start/stop button
alone will not automatically shift the transmis-
sion to park position
P
. Only when the driver’s
door is opened, will the transmission automati-
cally shift to park position
P
.
Even though this is possible, make it a practice
to always shift into park position
P
before turning
off the engine and removing the SmartKey from
the starter switch, or when using KEYLESS-GO*,
before turning off the engine with the start/stop
button and opening the driver’s door.
