          Appeal No. 1999-2068                                                        
          Application 08/650,038                                                      


          engine is idling or where the select lever 60 is in a parked                
          state."  As this system operates when the vehicle is not in                 
          motion there is no concern of driver's distraction from the                 
          road.                                                                       











               Therefore, we will not sustain the rejections of claims                
          1-14, 17, 19 and 20 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being                          
          unpatentable over Yano in view of Fujisawa.  Accordingly, the               
          Examiner's decision is reversed.                                            
                                     REVERSED                                         











                                          14
