When Driving
The selector position is indicated
when the ignition is switched ON.
■Gear position indication
In manual shift mode, the “M” of the shift position indication illumi-
nates and the numeral for the selected gear is displayed.
The warning light turns on when the system has a malfunction.
Refer to Warning Lights on P. 157.
• The shift position indicator light in the combination meter illumi- nates. Refer to Warning/Indicator Lights on P. 156.
• The selector lever must be in P or N to operate the starter.
■P (Park)
P locks the transaxle and prevents the front wheels from rotating.
■R (Reverse)
In position R, the vehicle moves only backward. You must be at a
complete stop before shifting to or from R, except under rare cir-
cumstances as explained in Rocking the Vehicle ( →P. 129).
■N (Neutral)
In N, the wheels and transaxle are not locked. The vehicle will roll
freely even on the slightest in cline unless the parking brake or
brakes are on.
Apply the parking brake or depress the brake pedal before moving the
selector lever from N to prevent the vehicle from moving unexpectedly.

■Passing
For extra power when passing another vehicle or climbing steep
grades, depress the accelerator fully. The transaxle will shift to a
lower gear, depending on vehicle speed.
Some models:
The 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.
■
Climbing steep grades from a stop
To climb a steep grade from a stopped position:
Depress the brake pedal.
Shift to D or M1, depending on the load weight and grade steep-
ness.
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 pr event them from overheating.
Driving Tips
WARNING
■Do not let the vehicle move in a di rection 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.
