sure the ignition key is in the ON posi-
tion.

Avoid pushing the vehicle on a slope. If
you must push the vehicle on a slope,

of the brake pedal in case the vehicle
starts to roll.

1. While seated on the vehicle, push
down and hold the brake pedal.
2. Disengage the parking brake.
3. Dismount on the right side of the
vehicle, keeping your foot on the
brake pedal.

CAUTION
Only push from the right side, so you
can reach the brake pedal. Stay clear
of the hot exhaust pipe.
When pulling the vehicle backward, be

over your feet.

specified above.
