Gearshift and Parking Lock Controls

The transaxle is controlled by a lever type gearshift incorporated within the console. The control has six selector lever positions: P (Park), R (Reverse), N (Neutral), and D (Drive), 2 (Second), and 1 (First). The parking lock is applied by moving the selector lever past a gate to the (P) position. Do not apply the parking lock until the vehicle has stopped; otherwise, a severe banging noise will occur.
