Good driving practices

• Never move the gear selector lever

from P (Park) or N (Neutral) to any

other position with the accelerator

pedal depressed.

• Never move the gear selector lever into

P (Park) when the vehicle is in motion.

• Be sure the car is completely stopped

before you attempt to shift into R

(Reverse) or D (Drive).

• Never take the car out of gear and

coast down a hill. This may be

extremely hazardous.Always leave the

car in gear when moving.

• Do not "ride" the brakes. This can

cause them to overheat and malfunc-

tion. Instead, when you are driving

down a long hill, slow down and shift to

a lower gear.When you do this, engine

braking will help slow the car.

• Slow down before shifting to a lower

gear. Otherwise, the lower gear may

not be engaged.

• Always use the parking brake. Do not

depend on placing the transaxle in P

(Park) to keep the car from moving.
