STARTING AND OPERATING 203
WARNING!
CAUTION!
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle.
If the Brake Warning Light remains on with the
parking brake released, a brake system malfunction
is indicated. Have the brake system serviced by an
authorized dealer immediately.
• Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is
dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or
others could be seriously or fatally injured. Chil-
dren should be warned not to touch the parking
brake, brake pedal or the gear selector.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle or
in a location accessible to children. A child could
operate power windows, other controls, or move
the vehicle.
• Be sure the parking brake is fully disengaged
before driving; failure to do so can lead to brake
failure and a collision.
• Always fully apply the parking brake when leav-
ing your vehicle, or it may roll and cause damage
or injury. Also be certain to leave a manual
transmission in FIRST gear or REVERSE gear.
Failure to do so may allow the vehicle to roll and
cause damage or injury.
SPORT MODE
5
Manual Transmission — If Equipped
The Sport mode increases steering feedback to the
driver with slight increases in effort and throttle pedal-
to-engine response. This driving mode is useful while
driving on twisty roads where more steering precision
is desired in spirited cornering.
1. To activate the Sport mode, push the SPORT button.
