Selector lever positions
Always leave the car with
the gear selector in ’P’
(Park) position when parked.
•
‘P’ Park
In this position the transmission is locked to prevent the
car from rolling away. Select ONLY when the car is
stationary and with the handbrake applied.
•
‘R’ Reverse
Select ONLY when the car is stationary.
•
‘N’ Neutral
Use this position when the car is stationary and the engine
is to idle for a short period (eg. at traffic lights).
•
‘D’ Drive
Select for all normal driving; fully automatic gear changing
occurs on all five forward gears, according to road speed
and accelerator position.
•
‘4’ (1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th gears)
Automatic gear changing is limited to the lower four gears
only; use this position for town driving and on winding
country roads.
•
‘3’ (1st, 2nd and 3rd gears)
Automatic gear changing is limited to the lower three
gears only; use this position in congested traffic conditions.
This position also provides moderate engine braking for
descending slopes.
•

Automatic gear changing is limited to first and second
gears only; use when driving up steep gradients and for
negotiating very narrow, twisting roads. This position also
provides more pronounced engine braking for descending
steep slopes.
