Shift lock system (if equipped)
For your safety, the automatic

which prevents shifting the trans -

To shift the transmission from P
(Park) into R (Reverse):
1. Depress and hold the brake pedal.
2. Start the engine or turn the igni -
tion switch to the ON position.
3. Move the shift lever.
If the brake pedal is repeatedly
depressed and released with the
shift lever in the P (Park) position, a
chattering noise near the shift lever
may be heard. This is a normal con -
dition.
WARNING
Always fully depress the brake
pedal before and whilst shifting out
of the P (Park) position into another
position to avoid inadvertent motion
of the vehicle which could injure per -
sons in or around the vehicle.
