Warning!
It is dangerous to shift the automatic trans-
mission out of park position
P or neutral
position N if the engine speed is higher than
idle speed. If your foot is not firmly on 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 when your
right foot is firmly on the brake pedal.
! Only shift the automatic transmission into
reverse gear R or park position P when the
vehicle is stopped. Otherwise the auto-
matic transmission could be damaged.
i Shifting the automatic transmission out of
park position P is only possible with the
brake pedal depressed.
Only depressing the brake pedal releases
the gear selector lever lock.
i The current gear selector lever position
corresponds with the current transmission
position.
The current transmission position
P, R, N,
or D appears in the multifunction display
(

There are additional indicators on the cover
of the shifting gate showing the current gear
selector lever position.

SmartKey into the starter switch, and go out
when you remove the SmartKey from the
starter switch.
