P Position

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Honda Insight and 2010 Honda Insight. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The manual valve is shifted into the P position, the manual valve blocks hydraulic pressure to the forward clutch. Hydraulic pressure is not applied to the start and forward clutches, and power is not transmitted to the drive pulley shaft.
