Parking
brake lever
The parking brake lever is located between
the front seats.
• To set the parking brake, pull the lever _up
until strong resistance is felt. The park1ng
brake must be pulled up all the way so that
the vehicle cannot be moved. When the
ignition is on, the brake waming light will
light up. •
Depress brake pedal and hold while re­
leasing parking brake. To release the park­
ing brake, pull the lever slightly up, depress
the release button (arrow), and then push
the lever all the way down.
When the parking brake is fully released,
the brake warning light will go out.
�W ARNING
• Always release the parking
brake fully. A partially engaged
brake will overheat the rear
brakes. reduc:e their effective­
ness and cause excessive wear.
This • could lead to brake failure
and an ac:c:ident.
• Always set the parking brake
when parking your vehicle.
• Move the selector
lever to .. p.,. CONT
ROLS AND EQUIPMENT

the wheels so that the front
wheels will first run into the curb
if the car starts to roll.

ways turn the front wheels to­
ward the curb.

In selector
lever positions "P" (Park) a no
"N" (Neutral), the instruction "WHEN
STA TIONARY APPLY FOOTBRAKE WHILE
SELECTING GEAR" appears in the instru­
ment cluster as a reminder for the driver.
Also, the symbol in the shift console will
light up.
A time delay element prevents the selector
lever from locking when it is moved through
the "N"' (Neutral) position (for example,
going from "R" to "D"). The locking ele­
ment only locks the selector lever if it is left
in the "N" (Neutral) position for more than
about one second without the brake pedal
being depressed.
In the N (Neutral) position, the selector le­
ver will not lock when the vehicle is driving
faster than 3 mph (5 km/h). Display
When the ignition is switched on, the posi­
tion of the selector lever is shown in the dis­
play in the instrument cluster. The illustra­
tion shows selector position D engaged.
The engaged selector lever position will ap­
pear bright against a dark background while
the other positions appear just the opposite.
If all the positions appear dark against a
bright background at the same time, or
when no positions are indicated then there
is a malfunction in the transmission -see
under "Fail-safe mode" on page 111. CONT
ROLS AND EQUIPMENT
Selector lever positions
P- Park
Engage P (Park) only when the vehicle is
stationary. When parking your vehicle, ap­
ply the parking brake first, and then move
the selector lever completely to position P.
To do this depress the button in the
handle of the selector lever and
push it through R to P. The transmis­
sion is then mechanically locked.
To move the selector lever out of the P
(Park) position you must first insert the
ign ition key into the ignition lock and turn.
Before you move the selector lever
from the P (Park) position, you must
always apply the brake pedal before
and while depressing the button in
the handle of the selector lever.
Shift out of the P (Park) position before re­
leasing the parking brake.
When the vehicle is parked on a steep hill,
shifting out of P (Park) may be a little hard­
er. This is due to the vehicle' s weight ex­
erted on the transmission.

CONTROLS AND
EQUIPMEN T--------------------
Selecting a driving position
�W ARNING
• Power is transmitted to the
wheels as soon as a driving posi­
tion Is engaged. Therefore, when
the selector lever is in a driving
position, the vehicle may creep
even at idle speed. Do not release
the parking brake or foot brake un­
til you are ready to move.
• If you must check under the
hood with the engine running,
never have any driving position en­
gaged. Make sure the selector le­
ver is securely locked into the P
(Park) position with the parking
brake firmly set. Otherwise, any
increase in engine speed may set
the vehicle in motion, even with
the parking brake applied.
• Do not accelerate while select­
ing a driving position. At this time
the engine must run at idle speed
so that no undue stress will be
placed on the automatic clutches
in the transmission.
110 rA'J
WARNING continued
o If the selector lever is uninten­
tionally moved into N (Neutral}
while you are driving, take your
foot off the accelerator pedal and
wait to idle speed before selecting
a driving position.
• Never shift into R (Reverse) or P
(Park) when the vehicle is in mov­
ing. You will damage the transmis­
sion.
Sta rting off
Select a gear. Wait for the transmis·
sion to engage the gaar (the vehicle
may move slightly). Then press the gas
pedal.
Maneuvering
When alternating between forward (D) and
reverse (R)-for instance, while maneuver­
ing the vehicle into a tight parking space -
shift only when the vehicle has come to a
full stop and the engine is running at idle
speed. Stopping
• When stopping briefly, at a traffic light for
example, it is not necessary to move these­
lector lever to N (Neutra l). Simply apply
the foot brake.
• The driving positions must never be used
for holding the vehicle on a hill. Always use
the foot brake when stopped on inclines.
mi WARNING
It is best never to get out of the
driver's seat when the engine is
running. However, if you must get
out of the vehicle, do this: Move
the selector lever securely into the
P (Park) position and apply the
parking brake firmly. If you are not
securely in P (Park), your vehicle
could move, possibly causing a se­
rious accident.
