not simultaneously accelerate.

cle is stationary. Otherwise, you could dam-
age the transmission.

It is only possible to shift the transmission from
position
P to the desired position if you depress

away. The locking knobs in the doors drop down.
You can open the doors from the inside at any
time.
You can also deactivate the automatic locking
feature (

Hill start assist
Hill start assist helps you when pulling away for-
wards or in reverse on an uphill gradient. Hill
start assist automatically maintains the brake
pressure for about another two seconds, after
you have taken your foot off the brake pedal.
This gives you enough time to move your foot
from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal
and depress it before the vehicle begins to roll.

WARNING
After a while, hill start assist no longer holds
the vehicle and it may roll away. There is a risk
of an accident and injury.
Therefore, quickly move your foot from the
brake pedal to the accelerator pedal. Never
leave the vehicle when it is held by hill start
assist.
Hill start assist is not active if:
