Shiftlock (automatic transmission)

is locked in the (P)ark position. To release the

brake pedal, press the button on the front side
of the gear selector and move the selector from

Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
The ABS system in your vehicle performs a
self-diagnostic test when the vehicle first rea-

(20 km/h). The brake pedal will pulsate several
times and a sound may be audible from the
ABS control module. This is normal.
