MANUAL PARK RELEASE — 8 SPEED TRANSMISSION
Always secure your vehicle by fully applying the parking brake, before activating the Manual
Park Release. Activating the Manual Park Release will allow your vehicle to roll away if it is not
secured by the parking brake or by proper connection to a tow vehicle. 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 push or tow the vehicle in cases where the transmission will not shift out of PARK
(such as a dead battery), a Manual Park Release is available. Follow these steps to use the
Manual Park Release:
1. Firmly apply the parking brake.
2. Remove the console storage bin to access the Manual Park Release lever.
3. Using a small screwdriver or similar tool, fish the tether strap up through the opening in
the console base.
