It is dangerous to shift the gear selector le-

ver out of P or N if the engine speed is high-

er than idle speed. If your foot is not firmly 

on the brake pedal, the vehicle could accel-

erate quickly forward or in reverse. You 

could lose control of the vehicle and hit 

someone or something. Only shift into gear 

when the engine is idling normally and when 

your right foot is firmly on the brake pedal.

N, or D is only possible with the brake pedal de-
pressed. Without the brake pedal depressed, the 
gear selector lever can be moved, but the park-
ing pawl remains engaged, not allowing shifting 
to occur.
