slope and the vehicle begins to move.
xTwo minutes have elapsed since the
idling was stopped.
xThe battery power is depleted.
x(Automatic transaxle)
xThe accelerator pedal is depressed
with the selector lever in the D or M
(not in second gear fixed mode)
position.
xThe selector lever is shifted to the R
position.
xThe selector lever is shifted from N or
P position to D or M (not in second
gear fixed mode) position.
xThe steering wheel is operated with
the selector lever in the D or M (not in
second gear fixed mode) position.
xThe selector lever is in the M position
and the second gear fixed mode is
selected.
x(Except European model)
x(Manual transaxle)
With the shift lever in the neutral
position, the driver's seat belt is
unfastened, the driver's door is
opened, or the bonnet is opened.
x(Automatic transaxle)
With the selector lever in the P or N
position, or the D/M range, the
driver's seat belt is unfastened, the
driver's door is opened, or the bonnet
is opened.
Selector lever is operated while engine
idling is stopped (automatic transaxle)
If the selector lever is shifted from D or M
(not in second gear fixed mode) position to
N or P position while engine idling is
stopped, the engine does not restart even
when the brake pedal is released. The
engine will restart if the brake pedal is
depressed again or the selector lever is
shifted to the D, M (not in second gear
fixed mode), or R position. (For the
purposes of safety, always keep the brake
pedal depressed when shifting the selector
lever while engine idling is stopped.)
If the selector lever is shifted from the D
or M (not in second gear fixed mode) to
the N or P position, and the driver's seat
belt is unfastened and the driver's door is
opened, the engine restarts.

Do not rely completely on the vehicle roll prevention function.
¾The vehicle roll prevention function is a supplementary function which operates for a
maximum of 4 seconds after releasing the brake pedal and accelerating the vehicle from an
engine idling stop condition. Over reliance on the system may result in an unexpected
accident if the vehicle were to suddenly accelerate. Before starting to drive the vehicle,
always confirm the safety of the surroundings and operate the selector lever, brake pedal,
and accelerator pedal appropriately. Note that the vehicle may move suddenly depending
on the vehicle's load or if it is towing something.
¾Note that the vehicle may move suddenly after the vehicle roll prevention function is
released while the vehicle is under the following conditions:
¾The selector lever is in the N position.
¾If the selector lever is shifted to the N position and the brake pedal is released while the
i-stop function is operating, the brake force is gradually released. To accelerate the
vehicle, release the brake pedal after the engine restarts and shift the selector lever to a
position other than the N position.
NOTE
xWhen the vehicle is stopped on a steep grade, the vehicle roll prevention function does not
operate because engine idling is not stopped.
xThe brake pedal response may change, sound may occur from the brakes, or the brake
pedal could vibrate from the operation of the vehicle roll prevention function. However,
this does not indicate a malfunction.

Do not use sudden engine braking on
slippery road surfaces or at high speeds:
Shifting down while driving on wet, snowy,
or frozen roads, or while driving at high
speeds causes sudden engine braking,
which is dangerous. The sudden change in
tyre speed could cause the tyres to skid.
This could lead to loss of vehicle control
and an accident.
Always leave the shift lever in 1 or R
position and set the parking brake when
leaving the vehicle unattended:
Otherwise the vehicle could move and
cause an accident.
& $ 8 7 , 2 1
¾Keep your foot off the clutch pedal except
when shifting gears. Also, do not use the
clutch to hold the vehicle on an upgrade.
Riding the clutch will cause needless
clutch wear and damage.
¾Do not apply any excessive lateral force
to the shift lever when changing from
5th to 4th gear. This could lead to the
accidental selection of 2nd gear, which
could result in damage to the transaxle.
¾Make sure the vehicle comes to a
complete stop before shifting to R.
Shifting to R while the vehicle is still
moving may damage the transaxle.
NOTE
xIf shifting to R is difficult, shift back into
neutral, release the clutch pedal, and try
again.

Lock-release button
Indicates the selector lever can be shifted freely into any position.
Indicates that you must hold in the lock-release button to shift. Indicates that you must depress the brake pedal and hold in the lock-release
button to shift (The ignition must be switched ON). Various Lockouts:
NOTE
The Sport AT has an option that is not included in the traditional automatic transaxle that
gives the driver the option of selecting each gear instead of leaving it to the transaxle to
shift gears. Even if you intend to use the automatic transaxle 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 (page 4-86).

Always set the selector lever to P position
and set the parking brake:
Only setting the selector lever to the P
position without using the parking brake to
hold the vehicle is dangerous. If P fails to
hold, the vehicle could move and cause an
accident.
& $ 8 7 , 2 1
¾Shifting into P, N or R while the vehicle is
moving can damage your transaxle.
¾Shifting into a driving gear or reverse
when the engine is running faster than
idle can damage the transaxle.

If the engine is running faster than idle, do
not shift from N or P into a driving gear:
It's dangerous to shift from N or P into a
driving gear when the engine is running
faster than idle. If this is done, the vehicle
could move suddenly, causing an accident
or serious injury.
Do not shift into N when driving the
vehicle:
Shifting into N while driving is dangerous.
Engine braking cannot be applied when
decelerating which could lead to an
accident or serious injury.
& $ 8 7 , 2 1
Do not shift into N when driving the
vehicle. Doing so can cause transaxle
damage.

Do not let the vehicle move in a direction
opposite to the direction selected by the
selector lever:
Do not let the vehicle move backward with
the selector lever in a forward position, or
do not let the vehicle move forward with
the selector lever in the reverse position.
Otherwise, the engine may stop, causing
the loss of the power brake and power
steering functions, and make it difficult to
control the vehicle which could result in an
accident.

NOTE
xThe accelerator pedal may initially feel
heavy as it is being depressed, then feel
lighter as it is depressed further. This
change in pedal force aids the engine
control system in determining how much
the accelerator pedal has been
depressed for performing kickdown, and
functions to control whether or not
kickdown should be performed.
xWhile the selector lever is in the M
position and the DSC is turned off,
manual shift mode does not switch to
automatic shift mode even if the
accelerator pedal is completely
depressed. Operate the selector lever.
