AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Always fully apply the
parking brake and make sure you shift
into park (P). Failure to follow this
instruction could result in personal injury
or death. WARNING:
Do not apply the brake
pedal and accelerator pedal
simultaneously. Applying both pedals
simultaneously for more than a few
seconds will limit engine performance,
which may result in difficulty maintaining
speed in traffic and could lead to serious
injury. WARNING:
When your vehicle is
stationary, keep the brake pedal fully
pressed when shifting gears. Failure to
follow this instruction could result in
personal injury, death or property
damage.
Note: Do not use supplemental
transmission fluid additives, treatments or
cleaning agents. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in vehicle damage
not covered by the vehicle warranty
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
POSITIONS
Park (P) WARNING:
Move the transmission
selector lever to park (P) only when your
vehicle is stationary.
This position locks the driveline. Come to
a complete stop before putting your
vehicle into and out of park (P). The electric parking brake could apply
when you shift to park (P) without the
brake pedal fully pressed. The electric
parking brake applies when you shift to
park (P) on large slopes. The electric
parking brake releases with the drive away
release function.
See Electric Parking
Brake (page 190).
Note: A warning tone sounds if you open
the driver door and you have not shifted the
transmission selector to park (P).
Reverse (R) WARNING:
Move the transmission
selector lever to reverse (R) only when
your vehicle is stationary and the engine
is at idle speed.
This position allows your vehicle to move
backward. Come to a complete stop
before shifting into and out of reverse (R).
Neutral (N) WARNING:
In neutral (N) your
vehicle has the ability to roll freely. If you
intend to leave your vehicle, make sure
you apply the parking brake.
This position allows your vehicle to roll
free. Hold the brake pedal down when in
this position.
Note: You can start your vehicle in this
position.
Drive (D)
Drive (D) is the normal driving position, and
allows automatic upshifts and downshifts
through all available gears.

6. Turn dial (A) clockwise to the sealant
position. Turn the kit on by pressing the
on/off button (B).
7. Inflate the tire to the pressure listed on
the tire label located on the driver door
or the door jamb area. The final tire
pressure should be checked with the
compressor turned off in order to get
an accurate pressure reading. 8. When the recommended tire pressure
is reached, turn off the kit, unplug the
power cable, and disconnect the hose
from the tire valve. Re-install the valve
cap on the tire valve and return the kit
to the rear of the vehicle.
9. Drive the vehicle 4 mi (6 km) to
distribute the sealant evenly inside the
tire.
Note: If you experience any unusual
vibration, ride disturbance or noise while
driving, reduce your speed until you can
safely pull off to the side of the road to call
for roadside assistance. Do not proceed to
the second stage of this operation.
