Push the service brake pedal with
your foot and pull the parking brake
release handle to release the
parking brake.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION OPERATION
Brake-shift interlock
The vehicle is equipped with a brake-shift interlock feature that prevents
the gearshift lever from being moved from P (Park) unless the brake
pedal is depressed.
If you cannot move the gearshift lever out of P (Park) position with the
ignition in the (4) ON position and the brake pedal depressed, a
malfunction may have occurred. It is possible that a fuse has blown or
the vehicle’s brakelamps are not operating properly. Refer toFuses and
relaysin theRoadside Emergencieschapter. If the fuses and
brakelamps are working properly, and the vehicle still will not shift out of
(P) Park, see your authorized dealer for service.
In an emergency, to disable the malfunctioning brake-shift interlock
feature in order to shift the vehicle from P(Park) follow these steps:
WARNING:To prevent vehicle movement when following this
procedure, park on a level surface, ensure parking brake is set,
and block the rear wheels.
1. Apply the parking brake. Turn key to the 2 (LOCK ), and then remove
the key;
2. Disconnect the negative (Black) battery cable from the battery;
3. Insert the key and turn to 3 (OFF). Shift to N (Neutral);
4. Reconnect the negative (Black) battery cable to the battery;
