Shift Lever Position Indicators

These indicators between the

tachometer and speedometer show

which position the shift lever is in.

The ''D'' indicator comes on for a

few seconds when you turn the

ignition switch to the ON (II)

position. If it flashes while driving (in

any shift position), it indicates a

possible problem in the transmission.

If the malfunction indicator lamp

comes on along with the ''D''

indicator, there is a problem with the

automatic transmission control

system. Avoid rapid acceleration, and

have the transmission checked by

your dealer as soon as possible.

When the ''D'' indicator warns of a

possible problem with the

transmission, you will see a ''CHECK

TRANSMISSION'' message on the

multi-information display (see page
