Parking on a hill
To prevent the vehicle from rolling, follow these

sition.

tly touches the kerb.

Starting and driving
NOTE
l
If your vehicle is equipped with A/T, CVT
or Twin Clutch SST, be sure to apply the park-
st
or
ing brake before moving the selector lever (A/
T or CVT) or gearshift lever (Twin Clutch
SST) to the "P" (PARK) position. If you
move the selector lever (A/T or CVT) or gear-
shift lever (Twin Clutch SST) to the "P"
(PARK) position before applying the parking
brake, it may be difficult to disengage the se-
lector lever (A/T or CVT) or gearshift lever
(Twin Clutch SST) from the "P" (PARK) po-
sition when next you drive the vehicle, requir-
ing application of a strong force to the selec-
tor lever (A/T or CVT) or gearshift lever
(Twin Clutch SST) to move from the "P"
(PARK) position.
Parking with the engine running
Never leave the engine running while you take a
short sleep/rest, or you open or close a gate or ga-
rage door, etc. Also, never leave the engine run-
ning in a closed or poorly ventilated place.
WARNING
l
Leaving the engine running risks injury
or death from accidentally moving the
gearshift lever (with M/T or Twin Clutch
SST) or the selector lever (with A/T or
CVT) or the accumulation of toxic ex-
haust fumes in the passenger compart-
ment.
