2) Right-hand drive models
The select lever has four positions,
“
P
”
,
“
R
”
,
“
N
”
,
“
D
”
and also has manual gate for
using the manual mode.
NOTE
To protect the engine/transmission
while the select lever is in the
“
P
”
or
“
N
”
position, the engine is controlled
so that the engine speed may not
become too high even if the accelerator
pedal is depressed hard.
!
P (Park)
This position is for parking the vehicle and
starting the engine.
In this position, the transmission is me-
chanically locked to prevent the vehicle
from rolling freely.
When you park the vehicle, first apply the
parking brake, then shift into the
“
P
”
position. Do not hold the vehicle with only
the transmission.
To shift the select lever from the
“
P
”
position to any other position, you have
to depress the brake pedal fully then push
the release button on the selector lever
when the ignition switch is in the
“
ON
”
position. This prevents the vehicle from
lurching when it is started.
!
R (Reverse)
This position is for backing the vehicle. To
shift from the
“
N
”
to
“
R
”
position, stop the
vehicle completely then move the lever to
the
“
R
”
position while pressing the select
lever button in.
When the ignition switch has been turned
to the
“
LOCK
”
/
“
OFF
”
position, movement
of the select lever from the
“
N
”
to
“
R
”
position is possible for a limited time
period by depressing the brake pedal,
and then it becomes impossible. For
details, refer to
“
Shift lock function
” F
7-19.
!
N (Neutral)
This position is for restarting a stalled
engine.
In this position the wheels and transmis-
sion are not locked. In this position, the
transmission is neutral; the vehicle will roll
freely, even on the slightest incline unless
the parking brake or foot brake is applied.
Do not coast with the transmission in
neutral. Engine braking has no effect in
this condition.
NOTE
If the select lever is in the
“
N
”
position
when you stop the engine for parking,
you may not subsequently be able to
move it to the
“
R
”
and
“
P
”
positions. If
this happens, turn the ignition switch to
the
“
ON
”
position. You will then be able
to move the select lever to the
“
P
”
position.
WARNING
Do not drive the vehicle with the
select lever in the
“
N
”
(neutral)
position. Engine braking has no
effect in this condition and the risk
of an accident is consequently in-
creased.
