Parking

Parking on a hill

prevent the vehicle from

rolling, follow these

procedures:

Parking on a downhill slope

Turn the front wheels towards the kerb and move

the vehicle forward until the kerb side wheel gently

touches the kerb.

Set the parking brake and place the gearshift lever

into the “R” (Reverse) position (with M/T) or the

selector lever into the “P” (PARK) position (with

A/T).

If necessary, apply chocks to wheels.

Parking on an uphill slope

Turn the front wheels away from the kerb and

move the vehicle back until the kerb side wheel gen-

tly touches the kerb.

Set the parking brake and place the gearshift lever

into the 1

position (with M/T) or the selector lever

into the “P” (PARK) position (with A/T).

If necessary, apply chocks to wheels.

NOTE

If your vehicle is equipped with A/T, 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 before applying the parking

brake, it may be difficult to disengage the se-

lector lever from the “P” (PARK) position

when next you drive the vehicle, requiring ap-

plication of a strong force to the selector lev-

er to move from the “P” (PARK) position.

lector lever (on A/T vehicles) or the accu-

mulation of toxic exhaust fumes in the pas-

senger compartment.

damaged if you scrape it

over kerbs or parking stop blocks. Be careful when

travelling up or down steep slopes where your bump-

er can scrape the road.

Do not park your vehicle in areas where

combustible materials such as dry grass

or leaves can come in contact with a hot

exhaust, since a fire could occur.

ded.
