STARTING AND OPERATING
144
(Continued)
Ignition Park Interlock
This vehicle is equipped with an Ignition
Park Interlock which requires the transmis-
sion to be in PARK before the ignition can be
turned to the OFF mode. This helps the
driver avoid inadvertently leaving the vehicle
without placing the transmission in PARK.
This system also locks the transmission in
PARK whenever the ignition is in the OFF
mode. NOTE:
The transmission is NOT locked in PARK
when the ignition is in the ACC mode (even
though the engine will be off). Ensure that
the transmission is in PARK, and the ignition
is
OFF (not in ACC mode) before exiting the
vehicle.
Brake/Transmission Shift Interlock
System
This vehicle is equipped with a Brake Trans -
mission Shift Interlock system (BTSI) that
holds the transmission gear selector in PARK
unless the brakes are applied. To shift the
transmission out of PARK, the engine must
be running and the brake pedal must be
pressed. The brake pedal must also be
pressed to shift from NEUTRAL into DRIVE
or REVERSE when the vehicle is stopped or
moving at low speeds.
It is dangerous to shift out of PARK or
NEUTRAL if the engine speed is higher
than idle speed. If your foot is not firmly
pressing the brake pedal, the vehicle
could accelerate quickly forward or in
reverse. You could lose control of the
vehicle and hit someone or something.
Only shift into gear when the engine is
idling normally and your foot is firmly
pressing the brake pedal.
Unintended movement of a vehicle could
injure those in or near the vehicle. As
with all vehicles, you should never exit a
vehicle while the engine is running.
Before exiting a vehicle, always come to
a complete stop, then apply the parking
brake, shift the transmission into PARK,
and turn the ignition OFF. When the igni -
tion is in the OFF mode, the transmis-
sion is locked in PARK, securing the
vehicle against unwanted movement.
When exiting the vehicle, always make
sure the ignition is in the OFF mode,
remove the key fob from the vehicle, and
lock the vehicle.
WARNING! (Continued)
Never leave children alone in a vehicle,
or with access to an unlocked vehicle.
Allowing children to be in a vehicle unat -
tended is dangerous for a number of
reasons. A child or others could be seri -
ously or fatally injured. Children should
be warned not to touch the parking
brake, brake pedal or the transmission
gear selector.
Do not leave the key fob in or near the
vehicle (or in a location accessible to
children), and do not leave the ignition
in the ACC or ON/RUN mode. A child
could operate power windows, other
controls, or move the vehicle.

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
208
(Continued)
Four–Wheel Drive Models
The manufacturer recommends towing with
all wheels OFF the ground. Acceptable
methods are to tow the vehicle on a flatbed
or with one end of the vehicle raised and the
opposite end on a towing dolly.
If flatbed equipment is not available and the
transfer case is operable, the vehicle may be
towed (in the forward direction, with ALL
wheels on the ground), IF the transfer case is
in NEUTRAL (N) and the transmission is in
PARK (P). Refer to “Recreational Towing” in
“Starting And Operating” for detailed
instructions.
Without The Key Fob
Special care must be taken when the vehicle
is towed with the ignition in the OFF mode.
The only approved method of towing without
the key fob is with a flatbed truck. Proper
towing equipment is necessary to prevent
damage to the vehicle.
Tow Eye Usage
Your vehicle is equipped with a tow eye that
can be used to move a disabled vehicle.
When using a tow eye be sure to follow the
“Tow Eye Usage Precautions” and the
“Towing A Disabled Vehicle” instructions in
this section.
The tow eyes are mounted below the front
and rear bumpers.
Front Tow Eye Rear Tow Eye
Tow Eye Usage Precautions
CAUTION!
Front or rear wheel lifts must not be used
(if the remaining wheels are on the
ground). Internal damage to the trans-
mission or transfer case will occur if a
front or rear wheel lift is used when
towing.
Towing this vehicle in violation of the
above requirements can cause severe
transmission and/or transfer case
damage. Damage from improper towing
is not covered under the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.
WARNING!
Stand clear of vehicles when pulling with
tow eyes.
Do not use a chain with a tow eye. Chains
may break, causing serious injury or
death.
Do not use a tow strap with a tow eye.
Tow straps may break or become disen -
gaged, causing serious injury or death.
Failure to follow proper tow eye usage
may cause components to break
resulting in serious injury or death.
