Shiftlock

The automatic transmission's shiftlock function helps prevent inadvertently moving the gear selector between different positions.

Automatic shiftlock

The automatic shiftlock has a separate safety system.

From Park - P

To move to another gear from P (Park), the brake pedal must be depressed and the ignition in mode II.

From Neutral - N

If the gear selector is in N and the vehicle has been stationary for at least 3 seconds (with or without the engine running), the gear selector will be locked in that position.

To move the gear selector from N to another gear, the brake pedal must be depressed and the ignition in mode II.

Messages in the instrument panel

If the gear selector is locked in position, a message will appear in the instrument panel, e.g. Gear lever Press brake pedal to activate gear lever.

There is no mechanical shiftlock function.
