Hold in the button on the shift lever.

Leaving Your Vehicle With the Engine

Running (Automatic Transaxle Only)

CAUTION:

It can be dangerous to leave your vehicle with

the engine running. Your vehicle could move

suddenly if the shift lever is not fully in PARK (P)

with the parking brake firmly set. And, if you

leave the vehicle with the engine running, it could

overheat and even catch fire. You or others could

be injured. Don’t leave your vehicle with the

engine running unless you have to.

If you have to leave your vehicle with the engine

running, be sure your vehicle is in PARK (P) and your

parking brake is firmly set before you leave it. After

you’ve moved the shift lever into PARK (P), hold the

regular brake pedal down. Then, see if you can move the

shift lever away from PARK (P) without first pushing

the button.

If you can, it means that the shift lever wasn’t fully

locked into PARK (P).
