To park the vehicle, first bring it to a complete stop, fully engage the parking brake and then move the selector lever to the “P” (PARK) position.

If you are going to leave the vehicle unattended, always switch off the engine and remove the ignition key.

NOTE

On a slope, be sure to apply the parking brake before moving the selector lever to the “P” (PARK) position. If you move the selector lever to the “P” (PARK) position without first applying the parking brake, a stronger than normal resistance force may be encountered. In this situation, move the selector lever strongly when you next wish to drive.
