l To
avoid erroneous operation, move the se-
lector lever firmly into each position and brief-
ly hold it there. Always check the position
shown by the selector lever position indica-
tion lamp after moving the selector lever.
l If the brake pedal is not depressed and held,
the shift-lock device activates to prevent the
selector lever from being moved from the
“P” (PARK) position.
l For a shift indicated by in the illustration,
depress

the brake pedal before moving the se-
lector lever. If you attempt to move the selec-
tor lever before depressing the brake pedal,

When
the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position, the indication lamps in the
instrument panel illuminate to show the po-
sition of the selector lever (i.e. “PARK”,
“DRIVE”, “REVERSE”, etc.).
B- “N” indication lamp When
the “N” indication lamp blinks with
the “D” (DRIVE) position or “Sports
mode” being selected, the A/T may be mal-
functioning. CAUTION
l
If
a malfunction occurs in the A/T while
driving, the “N” indication lamp will blink.
In this case, immediately park your vehi-
cle in a safe place and follow these proce-
dures:
(The “N” indication lamp warning func-
tion does not operate with the selector lev-
er in the “P” (PARK), “R” (REVERSE)
or “N” (NEUTRAL) position.)
[The “N” indication lamp blinks rapidly
(twice per second)]
The automatic transmission fluid is over-
heating.
Park your vehicle in a safe place but do
not turn off the engine. Move the selector
lever to the “P” (PARK) position and
open the bonnet. Keep the engine idling.
After a while, move the selector lever to
the “D” (DRIVE) position and confirm
that the “N” indication lamp stops blink-
ing. It is safe to continue driving if the
“N” indication lamp no longer is no lon-
ger blinking.
If the “N” indication lamp continues blink-
ing or blinks intermittently, we recom-
mend you to have your vehicle inspected.
[The “N” indication lamp blinks slowly
(once per second)]
The A/T safety device may be operating
due to a malfunction.
We recommend you to have your vehicle
inspected as soon as possible. Starting and driving

Automatic transmission fluid*
E01000600857
The
proper amount of automatic transmission fluid
is essential to the life and operation of the automat-
ic transmission. Either insufficient fluid or exces-
sive fluid could cause transmission trouble. The
transmission fluid filler port cap is equipped with a
dipstick. Use the following procedure to check the
fluid level.
Procedure for checking the fluid level
1. Check the fluid level after the vehicle hasbeen driven enough to warm up the transmis-
sion fluid.
2. Park the vehicle on a flat, level surface and apply the parking brake.
3. With the engine idling and the brake pedal fully depressed, move the transmission selec-
tor lever through all the positions from P”
(PARK) to “D” (DRIVE), stopping momen-
tarily at each position.
4. Move the selector lever to the “P” (PARK) position.
5. Remove the dipstick and wipe it with a clean lint-free cloth.
6. Reinsert the dipstick as far as it goes. 7. Remove dipstick and read the oil level.
The fluid level should always be between the
two marks on the dipstick. WARNING
l Do
not spill the fluid onto a hot exhaust
manifold during topping up or inspec-
tion, or a fire may occur.
Fluid type
Use
only “DIA QUEEN ATF SP III” transmission
fluid to ensure optimum transmission performance. Washer fluid
E01000700164
Check

the float (A) is between the “FULL” and
“EMPTY” marks on the washer fluid reservoir.
If the level is low, replenish the container with wash-
er fluid. NOTE
l The

washer fluid container serves the wind-
screen, rear window and headlamps*.

To ensure proper operation of the washers at low
temperatures, use a fluid containing an anti-freez-
