When doing this procedure, you will
be taking the vehicle out of park
which means the vehicle can roll freely.
To avoid unwanted vehicle movement,
always fully set the parking brake prior to
doing this procedure. Use wheel chocks
if appropriate.
If the parking brake is fully released,
but the brake warning lamp remains
illuminated, the brakes may not be working
properly. See your authorized dealer.
Note: See your authorized dealer as soon
as possible if this procedure is used.
Note: For some markets this feature is
disabled.
Note: This feature will only function if your
12-volt battery has power.
Use the brake-shift interlock override to
move your transmission from the park
position in the event of an electrical
malfunction or if your vehicle has a dead
battery.
