STARTING AND OPERATING 179 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION The pointer on the selector indicates the transmission gear range (selector is illuminated for night driving). Start the engine with the selector lever in N (Neutral) or P (Park) position. NOTE: When the ignition is in the ON position, the brake pedal must be pressed to move the gearshift lever out of P (Park). WARNING! It is dangerous to shift the selector lever out of "P" or "N" if the engine speed is higher than idle speed. If your foot is not firmly on the brake pedal, the vehicle could accelerate 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. 5
