Reverse - R
Select R when backing up. The vehicle must
be stationary when Reverse is selected.
Neutral - N
No gear is selected and the engine can be started. Apply the parking brake if the vehicleis stationary with the gear selector in N.
To move the gear selector from N to another
gear, the brake pedal must be depressed andthe ignition in mode II. For vehicles with the small gear selector, the engine must be run-ning.
D
drive mode
D is the normal driving gear position. The
transmission shifts up or down automatically depending on acceleration and speed. The vehicle must be stationary when the gear selector is moved from R to D.
Manual shifting mode - M

Shiftlock The automatic transmission's shiftlock func- tion helps prevent inadvertently moving thegear selector between different positions.
There are two types of shiftlocks: mechanical and automatic.

The gear selector can be moved back and forth between N and D. The other positions
have a shiftlock that is operated using the lockbutton on the gear selector. Press and hold the shiftlock button and move the gear selector forward or backwardbetween P, R , N and D.
Automatic shiftlockThe automatic shiftlock has a separate safetysystem.
From Park - P
To move the gear selector from P to another
gear, the brake pedal must be depressed and the ignition in mode II. For vehicles with the
small gear selector, the engine must be run-ning.
From Neutral - N
If the gear selector is in N and the vehicle has
been stationary for at least 3 seconds (with or without the engine running), the gear selectorwill be locked in that position. To move the gear selector from N to another
gear, the brake pedal must be depressed and the ignition in mode II. For vehicles with the
small gear selector, the engine must be run-ning.
