shift to switch to a proper gear.
Special Environment

a few seconds before switching the gear
shift lever from position P to position D or

Brake system

separate circuits. Each
diagonally across the vehicle (the left-front
brake is connected with the right-rear brake,
etc.). If one circuit has problem, you will
still have braking at two wheels.
