FIRST (1): This position gives you even more power
(but lower fuel economy) than SECOND (2). You can
use it on very steep hills, or in deep snow or mud. 
If the selector lever is put in FIRST (1), the transaxle
won’t shift into first gear until the vehicle is going 
slowly enough.

NOTICE:

If your front wheels can’t rotate, don’t try to
drive. This might happen if you were stuck in
very deep sand or mud or were up against a solid
object. You could damage your transaxle.

Also, if you stop when going uphill, don’t hold
your vehicle there with only the accelerator
pedal. This could overheat and damage the
transaxle. Use your brakes or shift into PARK (P)
to hold your vehicle in position on a hill.

Parking Brake

This vehicle has a PUSH

brake pedal. To set the
parking brake, hold the
regular brake pedal down
with your right foot. Push
down the parking brake
pedal with your left foot.

If the ignition is in RUN or OFF/UNLOCK, the brake
system warning light will turn on while the parking
brake is set. The parking brake uses the brakes on the
rear wheels.
