Do not leave the key fob in or near the
vehicle (or in a location accessible to
children), and do not leave the ignition in
the AVV or ON mode. A child could
operate power windows, other controls, or
move the vehicle.
Caution!
Only engage the gear with engine at
idling while fully depressing the brake
pedal. If the transmission temperature
exceeds the normal operating limits, the
transmission control unit may change the
gear engagement order and reduce the
drive torque. If the transmission overheats,
it could operate incorrectly until it cools
down.
When using the vehicle with extremely
low external temperatures, the transmission
operation may change depending on the
engine and transmission temperature, as
well as vehicle speed. Activation of the
torque converter clutch and of the eighth
gear is inhibited until the transmission oil is
correctly warmed up. Complete operation
of the transmission will be enabled as soon
as the fluid temperature reaches the
predefined value.
