Shifting Into Park (P) - GMC 2004 Envoy Owner's Manual

Shifting Into Park (P)

CAUTION:
{
It can be dangerous to get out of your vehicle if
the shift lever is not fully in PARK (P) with the
parking brake firmly set. Your vehicle can roll.
If you have left the engine running, the vehicle
can move suddenly. You or others could be
injured. To be sure your vehicle will not move,
even when you are on fairly level ground, use
the steps that follow. With four-wheel drive,
your vehicle will be free to roll — even if your
shift lever is in PARK (P) — if your transfer
case is in NEUTRAL. So, be sure the transfer
case is in a drive gear — not in NEUTRAL.
See Four-Wheel Drive on page 2-26. Always
put the shift lever fully in PARK (P) with the
parking brake firmly set. If you are pulling a
trailer, see Towing a Trailer on page 4-55.
