Continuously variable transmission (CVT) (if so equipped)
in the multi-information display while you
are driving, there could be a malfunction in
the CVT.
CAUTION
 If a malfunction occurs in the CVT while
driving, the warning display or the
5
warning display will appear on the informa-
tion screen in the multi-information display.
In this case, follow these procedures:
[When warning display is showing]
The continuously variable transmission
(CVT) fluid is overheating. The engine con-
trol may activate to lower the CVT fluid tem-
perature, causing the engine revolutions and
vehicle speed to decrease, In this case, take
one of the following procedures.
• Slow down your vehicle.
• Stop your vehicle in a safe place, put the
selector lever in the "P" (PARK) position,
and open the engine hood with the engine
running to allow the engine to cool down.

Selector lever positions
"P" PARK
This position locks the transmission to pre-
vent the vehicle from moving. The engine can
be started in the "P" (PARK) position.
"R" REVERSE
Move the lever to this position only after the
vehicle has come to a complete stop.
CAUTION
 Never shift into the "P" (PARK) or "R"
warning
(REVERSE) position while the vehicle is in
motion. If the lever is shifted into the "P"
(PARK) or "R" (REVERSE) position while
the vehicle is in motion, the transmission
may be damaged.
"N" NEUTRAL
At this position, the transmission is disen-
gaged. It is the same as the neutral position on
a manual transaxle and should be used when
the vehicle is not moving for an extended
length of time during driving, such as in a
traffic jam.

WARNING
 Never move the selector lever to the "N"
(NEUTRAL) position while driving since
you could accidentally slip it into the "P"
(PARK) or "R" (REVERSE) position,
damaging the transmission.
 To prevent the vehicle from rolling when
stopped on a slope, the engine should be
started in the "P" (PARK) position, not in
"N" (NEUTRAL) position.
