To reduce risk of serious injury
or death, NEVER allow children
or any person who is unfamiliar
with the vehicle to touch the
Engine Start/Stop button or
related parts. Unexpected and
sudden vehicle movement can
occur.
WARNING
To turn the engine off in an
emergency:
Press and hold the Engine
Start/Stop button for more than
two seconds OR rapidly press
and release the Engine Start/
Stop button three times (within
three seconds).
If the vehicle is still moving, you
can restart the engine without
depressing the brake pedal by
pressing the Engine Start/Stop
button with the shift lever in the
N (Neutral) position.
WARNING
NEVER press the EngineStart/Stop button while the
vehicle is in motion except in
an emergency. This will result
in the engine turning off and
loss of power assist for the
steering and brake systems.
This may lead to loss of direc-
tional control and braking
function, which could cause
an accident.
Before leaving the driver's seat, always make sure the
shift lever is in the P (Park)
position, set the parking
brake, press the Engine Start/
Stop button to the OFF posi-
tion, and take the Smart Key
with you. Unexpected vehicle
movement may occur if these
precautions are not followed.

Transmission ranges
The indicator in the instrument clus-
ter displays the shift lever position
when the ignition switch is in the ON
position.
P (Park)
Always come to a complete stop
before shifting into P (Park).
To shift the gear from R (Reverse), N
(Neutral), D (Drive) or Manual mode
to P (Park), press the [P] button.
If you turn off the engine in D (Drive),
R (Reverse) or Manual mode the
shifting automatically changes to P
(Park).
When you park the vehicle, press the
[P] button while depressing the brake
pedal and then apply the parking
brake.
To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death:
ALWAYS check the surround-
ing areas near your vehicle for

before shifting a vehicle into
D (Drive) or R (Reverse).
Before leaving the driver's seat, always make sure the
shift lever is in the P (Park)
position, then set the parking
brake, and place the Engine
Start/Stop button in the OFF
position. Unexpected and
sudden vehicle movement
can occur if these precautions
are not followed.
When using the paddle shifter (manual mode), do not use
engine braking (shifting from
a high gear to lower gear) rap-
idly on slippery roads. The
vehicle may slip causing an
accident.
WARNING
Shifting into P (Park) while thevehicle is in motion may
cause you to lose control of
the vehicle.
After the vehicle has stopped, always make sure the shift
lever is in P (Park), apply the
parking brake, and turn the
engine off.
Do not use the P (Park) posi- tion in place of the parking
brake.

engaged. While parking the
vehicle with the engine run-
ning, depress the brake pedal
or apply the parking brake.
Do not drive with the shift lever in N (Neutral). Doing so
may result in an accident
because of a loss of engine
braking and the transmission
could be damaged.

Driving your vehicle
When the battery is discharged:
You cannot move the shift lever,
when the battery is discharged.
In emergencies, do the following to
move the shift lever to N (Neutral) on
a level ground.
1. Connect the battery cables fromanother vehicle or from another
battery to the jump-starting termi-
nals inside the engine compart-
ment.
For more information refer to
"Jump Starting" in chapter 6.
2. Release the parking brake with the Engine Start/Stop button in the
ON position.
3. Press the Engine Start/Stop but- ton to the OFF position.
4. Remove the cap-cover (1) and press the button (2) while depress-
ing the brake pedal. Then, the gear
will change to the N (Neutral) posi-
tion. The button (2) should be
pressed within 3 minutes after
turning OFF the engine. In addi-
tion, the button (2) operates only
for 20 seconds to change the gear
between N (Neutral) and P (Park)
from the time when the button (2)
is first pressed.
Information
In situations when the gear needs to be
changed from P (Park) to N (Neutral)
when the Engine Start/Stop button is
in the OFF position, refer to step 4.
Parking
Always come to a complete stop and
continue to depress the brake pedal.
Move the shift lever into the P (Park)
position, apply the parking brake,
and place the Engine Start/Stop but-
ton in the OFF position. Take the Key

When you stay in the vehiclewith the engine running, be
careful not to depress the
accelerator pedal for a long
period of time. The engine or
exhaust system may overheat
and start a fire.
The exhaust gas and the exhaust system are very hot.
Keep away from the exhaust
system components.
Do not stop or park over flam- mable materials, such as dry
grass, paper or leaves. They
may ignite and cause a fire.

Good Driving Practices
Never move the shift lever from P(Park) or N (Neutral) to any other
position with the accelerator pedal
depressed.
Never move the shift lever into P (Park) when the vehicle is in
motion.
Be sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before you attempt to shift
into R (Reverse) or D (Drive).
Do not move the shift lever to N (Neutral) when driving. Doing so
may result in an accident because
of a loss of engine braking and the
transmission could be damaged.
Do not drive with your foot resting on the brake pedal. Even light, but
consistent pedal pressure can
result in the brakes overheating,
brake wear and possibly even
brake failure.
When driving in Manual mode with the paddle shifter, slow down
before shifting to a lower gear.
Otherwise, the lower gear may not
be engaged if the engine rpms are
outside of the allowable range.
Depressing both accelerator and brake pedals at the same time can
trigger logic for engine power
reduction to assure vehicle decel-
eration. Vehicle acceleration will
resume after the brake pedal is
released.
Always apply the parking brake when leaving the vehicle. Do not
depend on placing the transmis-
sion in P (Park) to keep the vehicle
from moving. Exercise extreme caution when
driving on a slippery surface. Be
especially careful when braking,
accelerating or shifting gears. On a
slippery surface, an abrupt change
in vehicle speed can cause the
drive wheels to lose traction and
may cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident.
Optimum vehicle performance and economy is obtained by smoothly
depressing and releasing the
accelerator.

Driving your vehicle
Towing
AWD vehicle must be towed with all
four wheels off the ground, using a
flatbed tow truck or wheel dollies.
The AWD system could be damaged
if improperly towed.
For more information, refer to
"Towing" in chapter 6.
Vehicle inspection
When the vehicle is on a car lift, donot operate the front and rear
wheels separately. All four wheels
should be operated.
Never engage the parking brake while running the engine on a car
lift. This may damage the AWD
system.
Dynamometer testing
An AWD vehicle must be tested on a
special four wheel chassis dynamome-
ter.
An AWD vehicle should not be tested
on a 2WD roll tester. If a 2WD roll
tester must be used, perform the fol-
lowing procedure:
1. Check the tire pressures recom- mended for your vehicle.
2. Place the rear wheels on the roll tester for a speedometer test as
shown in the illustration.
3. Release the parking brake.
4. Place the front wheels on the tem- porary free roller as shown in the
illustration.
OHI056031
Keep away from the front of the
vehicle while the vehicle is in
gear on the dynamometer. The
vehicle can jump forward and
cause serious injury or death.
WARNING
Never start or run the engine
while an AWD vehicle is raised
on a jack. The vehicle can slip or
roll off of a jack causing serious
injury or death to you or those
nearby.
