The gear selector must be in PARK (P)
or NEUTRAL (N) to operate the starter.
The transmission gear selector has
PARK (P), REVERSE (R), NEUTRAL (N),
DRIVE (D), and MANUAL (M)(+/–) shift
positions.
The transmission may be shifted freely
from REVERSE (R), to NEUTRAL (N), to
DRIVE (D), to MANUAL (M)(+/–).Note:
Even if you intend to use the automatic
transmission functions as a traditional
automatic, you should also be aware
that you can inadvertently shift into
manual shift mode and an inappropriate
gear may be retained as the vehicle
speed increases. If you notice the
engine speed going higher or hear the
engine racing, confirm you have not
accidentally slipped into manual shift
mode (refer to “Manual Shift Mode”
paragraph in this section).
Shift Position Indication
The gear selector position (PRNDM) is
illuminated when the ignition is placed
in the ON mode.
Note:
If one of the following actions is
performed, the gear selector position is
displayed for five minutes even if the
ignition is placed in a mode other than
ON.
The ignition is placed in the OFF
mode.
The driver's door is opened.
Gear Position Indication
In MANUAL (M) shift mode, the “M” of
the shift position indication illuminates
and the number of the selected gear is
displayed.
Gear Selector Positions
Park (P)
PARK (P) locks the transmission and
prevents the driveshaft from rotating.
Warning!
Never use the PARK position as a
substitute for the park brake. Always apply
the park brake fully when parked to guard
against vehicle movement and possible
injury or damage.
Your vehicle could move and injure you
and others if it is not in PARK. Check by
trying to move the gear selector out of
PARK with the brake pedal released. Make
sure the transmission is in PARK before
leaving the vehicle.
It is dangerous to shift out of PARK or
NEUTRAL if the engine speed is higher
than idle speed. If your foot is not firmly
pressing 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 your
foot is firmly pressing the brake pedal.
Unintended movement of a vehicle
could injure those in or near the vehicle. As
with all vehicles, you should never exit a
vehicle while the engine is running. Before
exiting a vehicle, always apply the park
brake, shift the transmission into PARK,
and turn the ignition OFF. When the ignition
is in the OFF mode, the transmission is
GUID-05210200LHD12AT001Gear Selector And Pattern
153

You can start out, from a stop, in
first or second gear. Tapping the gear
selector rearward (+) (at a stop) will
allow starting in second gear. Starting
out in second gear can be helpful in
snowy or icy conditions.
Paddle Mode — If
Equipped
Tapping one of the steering
wheel-mounted shift paddles (+/-), if
equipped, while the gear selector is in
DRIVE (D), will activate Paddle Mode (a
temporary manual mode). The current
gear will be displayed in the instrument
cluster, with the "M" also illuminated.
The transmission will revert back to
normal operation (if the gear selector
remains in DRIVE) after a period of time,
depending on accelerator pedal activity.
Note: Because Paddle mode is only
temporary, use of the MANUAL (M)
position is recommended if you need to
drive the vehicle in a particular gear for
long periods.
Driving Tips
Overtaking
For extra power when passing another
vehicle or climbing steep grades, press
the accelerator fully. The transmission
will shift to a lower gear, depending on
vehicle speed. Note:
The accelerator pedal may initially
feel heavy as it is being pressed, then
feel lighter as it is pressed further. This
change in pedal force controls whether
or not kickdown should be performed.
While the gear selector is in the
MANUAL (M) position and the Dynamic
Stability Control (DSC) is turned off,
manual shift mode does not switch to
automatic shift mode even if the
accelerator pedal is completely
pressed. Tap the gear selector forward
or rearward to select the appropriate
gear.
Climbing steep grades from a stop
To climb a steep grade from a stopped
position:
1. Press the brake pedal.
2. Shift to DRIVE (D) or M1, depending
on the load weight and grade
steepness.
3. Release the brake pedal while
gradually accelerating.
Descending steep grades
When descending a steep grade, shift
to lower gears, depending on load
weight and grade steepness.
Descend slowly, using the brakes only
occasionally to prevent them from
overheating.
ELECTRONIC SPEED
CONTROL
Electronic Speed
Control
This is an electronically controlled
driving assistance feature that allows
the desired vehicle speed to be
maintained, without having to press the
accelerator pedal.
This feature can be used at a speed
above 25 mph (40 km/h) on long
stretches of dry, straight roads with few
variations (e.g. motorways).
It is therefore not recommended to use
this feature on city roads with traffic. Do
not use it in town.
Warning!
Do not use the cruise control under the
following conditions:
hilly terrain
steep inclines
heavy or unsteady traffic
slippery or winding roads
similar restrictions that require
inconsistent speed
Using the cruise control under the following
conditions is dangerous and could result in
loss of vehicle control.

when the accelerator pedal is
depressed).
Note:
Release the SET/- button at the
desired speed, otherwise the speed
will continue decreasing while the
SET/- button is pushed and held
(except when the accelerator pedal is
depressed).
On a steep grade, the vehicle may
momentarily slow down while
ascending, or speed up while
descending.
The cruise control will cancel if the
vehicle speed decreases below
16 mph (25 km/h) when climbing a
steep incline.
The cruise control may cancel at
about 9 mph (15 km/h) below the
preset speed such as when climbing a
long, steep incline.
The vehicle’s set speed is displayed in
the instrument cluster.

PARKVIEW REAR
BACKUP CAMERA —
IF EQUIPPED
Operation
The camera is located on the trunk.
Switching the display to rear-view
monitor mode
Put the gear selector in the REVERSE
(R) position when the ignition is
switched to ON to switch the display to
rear-view camera mode.
Note:
When the gear selector is moved
from the REVERSE (R) position and put
in any other position, the screen
returns to the previous display mode.
When parking, take the utmost care
over obstacles that may be above or
under the camera’s display range.
When the display is cold, the
images could scroll on the monitor or
the screen and could be more blurred
than usual, making it difficult to check
the conditions of the area around the
vehicle. Always use extreme caution
and verify the real conditions of the
area behind the vehicle with you own
eyes.
If water, snow or mud is deposited
on the camera lens, clean it with a soft
cloth. If this does not clean it, use a
mild detergent.
If the camera is subjected to abrupt
temperature changes (from hot to cold
or vice versa), the rear-view monitor
may not work properly.
When replacing tires, contact an
authorized dealer. Replacing the tires
can cause the guide lines that appear
on the display to be diverted.
Warning!
Always use extreme caution and verify
the real conditions of the area behind the
vehicle. Backing up while looking only at
the screen is dangerous and can lead to an
accident or collision with an object. The
rear-view monitor is simply a system to aid
reversing. The view on the display can
show a situation that differs from the real
one.
Do not use the rear-view monitor under
the following conditions:
Roads covered in ice or snow.
When snow chains are mounted or the
temporary space saver spare wheel is
fitted.
The rear trunk is not completely closed.
The vehicle is on a sloping road.
Using the rear-view monitor under the
conditions listed above is dangerous and
can cause damage to persons and/or the
vehicle.
Caution!
Do not apply excessive force to the
camera. You could alter the position and
angle of the camera. Do not disassemble,
modify or remove it as this could
compromise the seal.
The camera’s cover is made of plastic.
Do not apply degreasers, organic solvents,
wax or glass polish to the camera’s cover.
If some substance ends up on the cover,
clean it off immediately with a soft cloth.
Do not rub the cover too much, nor
polish it with abrasive compounds or hard
brushes. The cover could be damaged and
create image problems.

STARTING AND OPERATING

If the vehicle has been involved in a
frontal, lateral or rear collision, the rear
parking camera’s alignment (location or
installation angle) may have been altered.
Contact a authorized dealer.
If the display shows "no video signal",
there may be a problem with the camera.
Contact an authorized dealer.
Display
Note: The images on the display can
show a situation that differs from the
actual view.
The field of view varies depending on
the vehicle and the road conditions. The
field of view is limited. Objects below
the bumper or around its ends may not
be displayed. The distance displayed by the image
differs from the real one as the rear
parking camera is equipped with a
special lens.
The camera could capture any
non-standard accessories installed on
the vehicle. Do not install non-standard
accessories that could interfere with the
camera’s view, such as lights or
reflectors.Note:
If it is difficult to see the display
under the following conditions, it does
not mean that this is due to a
malfunction:
In dark areas.
When the temperature around the
lens is particularly high/low.
When the camera is wet from rain
or due to a high atmospheric humidity.
When there is some foreign deposit
around the camera, for example mud.
When the camera lens reflects
sunlight or a headlight beam.
The image on the display may be
delayed if the temperature around the
camera is low.
Caution!
To avoid vehicle damage, ParkView
should only be used as a parking aid. The
ParkView camera is unable to view every
obstacle or object in your drive path.
To avoid vehicle damage, the vehicle
must be driven slowly when using ParkView
to be able to stop in time when an obstacle
is seen. It is recommended that the driver
look frequently over his/her shoulder when
using ParkView.

Looking At The Display
The width of the vehicles guide lines
(yellow) are displayed on the screen as
a reference to show the width of the
vehicle compared to the width of the
parking space to be entered in reverse.
Vehicle Width Guide Lines
(Yellow): these guide lines serve as a
reference showing the width of the
vehicle.
Distance Guide Lines : these lines
indicate the approximate distance of a
point measured from the rear of the
vehicle (from the end of the bumper).
The red and yellow line indicates the
points at about 19 inches (50 cm), for
the red line and 39 inches (1 m) for the
yellow line, from the rear bumper
(central point of each line).
Warning!
Drivers must be careful when backing up
even when using the ParkView Rear Back
Up Camera. Always check carefully behind
your vehicle, and be sure to check for
pedestrians, animals, other vehicles,
obstructions, or blind spots before backing
up. You are responsible for the safety of
your surroundings and must continue to
pay attention while backing up. Failure to
do so can result in serious injury or death.
Rear-View Monitor
Operation
The operating modes of the rear-view
monitor when the vehicle is in reverse
vary depending on traffic, road and
vehicle conditions. Also the amount of
turning and the duration of the
maneuver vary depending on the
conditions, therefore is important to
check the effective situation and adapt
the steering.
Note: The images from the rear
parking camera shown on the monitor
are reversed (mirror image).
1. Put the gear selector in the
REVERSE (R) position to switch the
display to rear-view camera mode.
2. Check the surrounding conditions
and begin backing up. 3. Once the vehicle starts to enter the
parking space, proceed slowly in
reverse keeping the vehicle width guide
lines away from the two sides of the
parking space.
4. Continue to make corrections with
the steering wheel until the vehicle
width guide lines are parallel with the
two sides of the parking space.
