MANUAL PARK RELEASE

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 other means. 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 move the vehicle in cases where the transmission will not shift out of PARK
(such as a dead battery), a Manual Park Release is available. If a dead 12 volt battery is
the cause of the condition refer to "Jump Start Procedure — 12 Volt Battery" before
performing the Manual Park Release.
To perform the Manual Park Release follow these steps:
1. To prevent the vehicle from rolling unintentionally, firmly apply the parking brake.
2. If possible, raise the front driver's side of the vehicle to provide access to the trans-
mission.
3. Working from underneath the vehicle, remove the black rubber plug from the front
of the Park module (a black canister mounted on the front of the transmission).
