Shift-lock system
For your safety, the Intelligent Variable

(Reverse) unless the brake pedal is
depressed.
To shift the transmission from P (Park)
into R (Reverse):
1. Depress and hold the brake pedal.
2. Start the engine or place the ignition
switch in the ON position.
3. Move the shift lever.

1. Place the ignition switch in the LOCK/
OFF position.
2. Apply the parking brake.
3. Carefully remove the cap (1) covering
the shift-lock release access hole.

continue to depress the brake pedal.
Move the shift lever into the P (Park)

the engine running, be careful not
to depress the accelerator pedal for
a long period of time. The engine or

start a fire.
The exhaust gas and the exhaust
system are very hot. Keep away from
the exhaust system components.
