For the shift positions

●
When the power switch is off, the shift position cannot be changed.
●
When the power switch is in ON mode (the fuel cell system is not operating),
the shift position can only be changed to N. The shift position will be
changed to N even if the shift position is shifted to D or R and held in that
position.
●
When the "READY" indicator is on, the shift position can be changed from P
to D, N or R.
●
When the "READY" indicator is flashing, the shift position cannot be
changed from P to another position even if the shift lever is operated.
Wait until the "READY" indicator changes from a flashing to a solid light, and
then operate the shift lever again.
In addition, if an attempt is made to change the shift position by moving the
shift lever or by pressing the P position switch in any of the following situa-
tions, a buzzer will sound and the shifting operation will be disabled or the
shift position will automatically change to N. When this happens, select an
appropriate shift position.
●
When attempting to change the shift position from P without depressing the
brake pedal, the shift position change is invalidated.
●
Situations where the shift position will automatically change to N:
• When the P position switch is pressed while the vehicle is running.
• When an attempt is made to select the R position by moving the shift
lever when the vehicle is moving forward.
• When an attempt is made to select the D position by moving the shift
lever when the vehicle is moving in reverse.
• When an attempt is made to change the shift position from R to Br mode
by moving the shift lever.
