Lincoln Nautilus: Automatic Transmission

Automatic Transmission Precautions

WARNING: Always fully apply the parking brake and make sure you shift into park (P). Failure to follow this instruction could result in personal injury or death.

WARNING: Do not apply the brake pedal and accelerator pedal simultaneously. Applying both pedals simultaneously for more than a few seconds will limit engine performance, which may result in difficulty maintaining speed in traffic and could lead to serious injury.

WARNING: When your vehicle is stationary, keep the brake pedal fully pressed when shifting gears. Failure to follow this instruction could result in personal injury, death or property damage.

Note: Do not use supplemental transmission fluid additives, treatments, or cleaning agents. Failure to follow this instruction could result in vehicle damage not covered by the vehicle warranty.
