Do not turn off the engine before the vehicle 
has come to a complete stop. With the 
engine not running, there is no power assis-
tance for the brake and steering systems. In 
this case, it is important to keep in mind that 
a considerably higher degree of effort is 
necessary to brake and steer the vehicle.

Always set the parking brake in addition to 
shifting to position P (
When parked on an incline, also turn front wheel

switch with the transmission in a position other 
than P, the transmission will automatically shift 
to P.
Keep in mind that turning off the engine with the 
SmartKey alone will not automatically shift the 
transmission to P. Only when the SmartKey is 
removed from the starter switch will the trans-
mission automatically shift to P.

shift to P.
Keep in mind that turning off the engine with the 
KEYLESS-GO start/stop button alone will not 
automatically shift the transmission to P. Only 
when the driver’s door is opened will the trans-
mission automatically shift to P.
