■ For the shift positions
● When the engine switch is off or in ACC,
the shift position cannot be changed.

shift position can only be changed to N.

position can be changed from P to D, N
or R.

M directly from D.
In addition, if an attempt is made to change
the shift position by moving the shift lever or
by pressing the P position switch in any of
the following situations, the buzzer will
sound and the shifting operation will be dis-
abled or the shift position will automatically
change to N. When this happens, select an
appropriate shift position.

will be disabled:

shift position from P to another position
