Gear Selector
The gear selector is a joystick style shifting
mechanism which returns to the center posi
-
tion automatically. It can be pushed forward
twice and rearward twice, based on the
starting condition.
The PARK (P) mode can be enabled/disabled
by pushing the PARK (P) button. PARK (P)
mode is automatically activated if the
following conditions are met simultaneously:
DRIVE (D) mode or REVERSE (R) mode is
active
The vehicle’s speed is close to 0 mph
(0 km/h)
The brake pedal is released
The driver’s seat belt is not fastened
The driver’s door is open
To transition the vehicle into REVERSE (R)
mode from DRIVE (D) mode, or into DRIVE (D)
mode from REVERSE (R) mode, it is necessary
to move the gear selector by pushing the gear
selector button.
When using AutoStick, activate it by moving
the gear selector from DRIVE (D) to the left and
then forward toward the - symbol or backward
toward the + symbol and the gear is changed.
To shift out of PARK (P), or to pass from posi
-
tion NEUTRAL (N) to position DRIVE (D) or
REVERSE (R), the vehicle must be moving at a
low speed or stopped, and the brake pedal
must also be pressed.
