Your automatic transmission has a shift
lock system to minimize the possibility of
incorrect operation. This means you can
only shift out of "P" position when the
brake pedal is depressed (with the ignition
switch in "ON" position and the lock re-
lease button depressed).
(a) Normal driving
1. Start the engine as instructed in "How
to start the engine" in Part 3. The
transmission must be in "P" or "N".
2. With your foot holding down the brake
pedal, shift the selector lever to "D".
In "D" position, the automatic transmission
system will select the most suitable gear
for running conditions such as normal
cruising, hill climbing, hard towing, etc.
CAUTION
Never put your foot on the accelera-
tor pedal while shifting.
3. Release the parking brake and brake
pedal. Depress accelerator pedal slowly
for smooth starting.
