WARNING
• When shifting from the “P” or “N” position
to other positions, be sure to keep the
brake pedal depressed or set the parking
brake.
• Do not move the range selector lever to
the “D” or “R” position when the engine
speed is high during engine warm up and
during DPF regeneration, operation of the
air conditioner, or depression of the accel-
erator pedal. Shifting under this condition
is highly dangerous as the vehicle will
jerk.
