NINE-SPEED AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION
Your vehicle is equipped with a state of the
art, fuel efficient nine-speed transmission.
The transmission gear range (PRND) is dis-
played beside the gear selector and in the
instrument cluster display. To select a gear
range, push the lock button on the gear
selector and move the selector rearward or
forward. You must also press the brake pedal
to shift the transmission out of PARK, or to
shift from NEUTRAL into DRIVE or REVERSE
when the vehicle is stopped or moving at low
speeds (refer to "Brake/Transmission Shift
Interlock System" in this section). Select the
DRIVE range for normal driving.
The electronically-controlled transmission
adapts its shift schedule based on driver
inputs, along with environmental and road
conditions. The transmission electronics are
self-calibrating; therefore, the first few shifts
on a new vehicle may be somewhat abrupt.
This is a normal condition, and precision
shifts will develop within a few hundred miles
(kilometers).
WARNING!
• It is dangerous to shift out of PARK or
NEUTRAL if the engine speed is higher
than idle speed. If your foot is not firmly
pressing the brake pedal, the vehicle
could accelerate quickly forward or in
reverse. You could lose control of the
vehicle and hit someone or something.
Only shift into gear when the engine is
idling normally and your foot is firmly
pressing the brake pedal.
• Unintended movement of a vehicle
could injure those in or near the vehicle.
As with all vehicles, you should never
exit a vehicle while the engine is run-
ning. Before exiting a vehicle, always
apply the parking brake, shift the trans-
mission into PARK, and turn the ignition
OFF. When the ignition is in the OFF
mode, the transmission is locked in
PARK, securing the vehicle against un-
wanted movement.
• When leaving the vehicle, always make
sure the ignition is in the OFF mode,
WARNING!
remove the key fob from the vehicle, and
lock the vehicle.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle,
or with access to an unlocked vehicle.
Allowing children to be in a vehicle un-
attended is dangerous for a number of
reasons. A child or others could be seri-
ously or fatally injured. Children should
be warned not to touch the parking
brake, brake pedal or the transmission
gear selector.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near the
vehicle (or in a location accessible to
children), and do not leave the ignition
in the ON or RUN mode. A child could
operate power windows, other controls,
or move the vehicle.
