, or
4. Stop the engine.
CAUTION
!
● When leaving the vehicle, be sure to stop the engine
and remove the key from the ignition switch. If you
leave the engine running with the allshift lever in the
"S" (Stand by) or "R" position, the transmission's
creep effect could cause the vehicle to move by itself.
The vehicle could also suddenly move if you acciden-
tally pressed the accelerator pedal when getting
back into the vehicle.
NOTE
● Sit in the correct position for driving even if you plan to
move just a short distance. Make sure you are able to
depress the brake pedal and accelerator pedal properly.
● Reversing involves twisting to look backwards in a posi-
tion that makes operation of the pedals more difficult.
Make sure you are able to depress the brake pedal.
