Selector lever positions (Main gate)
E00603800077
“P” PARK
This position locks the transmission to prevent the vehicle
from moving. The engine can be started in this position.
“R” REVERSE
Move the lever to this position only after the vehicle has come
to a complete stop.
“N” NEUTRAL
At this position the transmission is disengaged. It is the same as
the neutral position on a M/T, and should be used when the
vehicle is stationary for an extended length of time during driv-
ing, such as in a traffic jam.
CAUTION
!
●
If a malfunction occurs in the A/T while driving, the
“N” indication lamp will blink.
In this case, immediately park your vehicle in a safe
place and follow these procedure:
(The “N” indication lamp warning function does not
operate with the selector lever in the “P” (PARK),
“R” (REVERSE) or “N” (NEUTRAL) position.)
[The “N” indication lamp blinks rapidly (twice per
second)]
The automatic transmission fluid is overheating.
Park your vehicle in a safe place but do not turn off
the engine. Move the selector lever to the
“P” (PARK) position and open the bonnet. Keep the
engine idling.
After a while, move the selector lever to the
“D” (DRIVE) position and confirm that the
“N” indication lamp stops blinking. It is safe to con-
tinue driving if the “N” indication lamp no longer
blinks.
If the “N” indication lamp continues blinking or
blinks intermittently, we recommend you to have
your vehicle inspected.
[The “N” indication lamp blinks slowly (once per
second)]
The A/T safety device may be operating due to a
malfunction.
We recommend you to have your vehicle inspected
as soon as possible.
CAUTION
!
●
Never shift into the “P” (PARK) or “R”
(REVERSE) position while the vehicle is in motion.
If the lever is shifted into the “P” (PARK) or “R”
(REVERSE) position while the vehicle is in motion,
the transmission may be damaged.
WARNING
!
●
Never move the selector lever to the “N” (NEU-
TRAL) position while driving. A serious accident
could occur since you could accidentally move the
lever into the “P” (PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) posi-
tion or you will lose engine braking.
