NOTE
Immediately after a disconnected battery is reconnected or ATF (au-
tomatic transmission fluid) is replaced, you may feel that the auto-
matic transmission operation is somewhat unusual.
This results from erasure or invalidation of data the on-board com-
puter has collected and stored in memory to allow the transmission
to shift at the most appropriate times for the current condition of
your vehicle. Optimized shifting will be restored as the vehicle con-
tinues to be driven for a while.

The selector lever has seven positions.
The release button must be pushed to select the “P”, “R”, or “2” posi-
tions.
B P (Park)
This position is for parking the vehicle and starting the engine.
In this position, the transmission is mechanically locked to prevent the
vehicle from rolling freely.
When you park the vehicle, first set the parking brake fully, then shift
into the “P” position. Do not hold the vehicle with only the transmis-
sion.
A shift interlock function is employed in the automatic transmission
system to ensure safe starting of the vehicle.
