There are several different positions for your shift lever.
P (Park)
This locks your front wheels. It's the best position to
use when you start your engine because your vehicle
can't move easily.
Ensure the shift lever is fully in "F'" (Park) range before
starting the engine. Your Buick has a brake-transaxle
shift interlock. You have to fully apply your regular
brakes before you can shift from "P" (Park) when the
ignition key is in the "Run" position. If you cannot shift
out of "P" (Park), ease pressure on the shift lever and
push the shift lever all the way into
" P '
(Park) as you
maintain brake application. Then move the shift lever
into the gear you wish. See "Shifting Out of 'P' (Park)"
in this part.
