Driving your vehicle
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH, take the follow-
ing precautions:
NEVER allow children or any per-
son who is unfamiliar with the
vehicle to touch the ignition
switch or related parts.
Unexpected and sudden vehicle
movement can occur.
NEVER reach through the steer-
ing wheel for the ignition switch,
or any other control, while the
vehicle is in motion. The pres-
ence of your hand or arm in this
area may cause a loss of vehicle
control resulting in an accident.
WARNING NEVER turn the ignition switch to
the LOCK or ACC position 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 directional control and brak-
ing function, which could cause an
accident.
Before leaving the driver's seat,
always make sure the shift lever is
in 1st gear (for manual transmis-
sion vehicle) or P (Park, for auto-
matic transmission/dual clutch
transmission vehicle) position,
apply the parking brake, and turn
ignition switch to the LOCK posi-
tion.
Unexpected vehicle movement may
occur if these precautions are not
followed.

the way before:
- Starting the engine The engine will not start without
depressing the clutch pedal.
- Shifting into gear, up shifting to the next higher gear, or down shifting to

Automatic Transmission Operation
The automatic transmission has six forward speeds and one reverse speed.
The individual speeds are selected automatically in the D (Drive) position. To reduce the risk of serious injury
or death:
ALWAYS check the surrounding
areas near your vehicle for peo-
ple, especially children, before
shifting a vehicle into D (Drive) or
R (Reverse).

OFF position. Unexpected and
sudden vehicle movement can
occur if these precautions are not

When using Manual Shift Mode,
do not use aggressive engine
braking (shifting from a higher
gear to a lower gear) on slippery

to slip and may result in an acci-
dent.
