1 Answers
Press the brake pedal, then pull the gear lever towards you and push it to the desired gear position. The PRND gear positions are located on the steering column, and the current gear is displayed on the instrument panel. Shift gears in the order of P, R, N, D, and always press the brake pedal before shifting. After parking the vehicle, shift into P (Park) gear. Remember to engage the parking brake as well. The R (Reverse) gear is for backing up - always check your surroundings before reversing to ensure safety.
