WARNING! (Continued)
allow your vehicle to roll away if it is not secured by
the parking brake or other means. Activating the
Manual Park Release on an unsecured vehicle could
lead to serious injury or death for those in or around
the vehicle.
In order to move the vehicle in cases where the transmis-
sion will not shift out of PARK (such as a dead battery),
a Manual Park Release is available. If a dead 12 volt
battery is the cause of the condition refer to “Jump Start
Procedure 12 Volt Battery” before performing the
Manual Park Release.
To perform the Manual Park Release follow these steps:
To prevent the vehicle from rolling unintentionally,
firmly apply the parking brake.
If possible, raise the front driver’s side of the vehicle to
provide access to the transmission.
Working from underneath the vehicle, remove the
black rubber plug from the front of the Park module (a
black canister mounted on the front of the transmis-
sion).
Using a T25 driver bit, rotate the Manual Park Release
shaft (located just behind the rubber plug) clockwise,
at least 20 turns, to release the Park mechanism. The
vehicle is now out of PARK and can be moved.
