Shifting Into Park
{
Warning
It can be dangerous to get out of
the vehicle if the shift lever is not
fully in P (Park) with the parking
brake firmly set. The vehicle can
roll. If you have left the engine
running, the vehicle can move
suddenly. You or others could be
injured. To be sure the vehicle will
not move, even when you are on
fairly level ground, use the steps
that follow. With four-wheel drive,
if the transfer case is in
N (Neutral), the vehicle will be
free to roll, even if the shift lever
is in P (Park). Be sure the transfer
case is in a drive gear. If towing a
trailer, see Driving Characteristics
and Towing Tips 0 285.
1. Hold the brake pedal down,
then set the parking brake. See
Electric Parking Brake 0 231.
2. Move the shift lever into
P (Park) by pulling the shift
lever toward you and moving it
up as far as it will go.
3. Be sure the transfer case if
equipped is in a drive gear, not
in N (Neutral).
4. Turn the ignition off. For Key
Access, push the ignition key
in, toward the steering column,
and then turn the ignition off.
5. For Key Access, remove the
key and take it with you. If you
can leave the vehicle with the
ignition key in your hand, the
vehicle is in P (Park).
For Keyless Access, take the
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter with you.

the engine running, it could
overheat and even catch fire. You
or others could be injured. Do not
