Parking
Always come to a complete stop and continue to depress the brake pedal. Move the shift lever to the P (Park) position, apply the parking brake, and turn the ignition switch to the LOCK/OFF position. Take the key with you when leaving the vehicle.
WARNING
If you remain in the vehicle with the engine running, be careful not to depress the accelerator pedal for an extended period. The engine or exhaust system may overheat and cause a fire.
Exhaust gases and the exhaust system are very hot. Keep away from exhaust system components.
Do not stop or park over flammable materials such as dry grass, paper, or leaves. They may ignite and cause a fire.
