Leaving Your Vehicle With the
Engine Running
It can be dangerous to leave your vehicle with the
engine running. Your vehicle could move
suddenly if the shift lever is not fully in PARK (P)
with the parking brake firmly set.
If
you have
four-wheel drive with a manual transfer case
shift lever and your transfer case is in
NEUTRAL (N), your vehicle will be free to roll,
even if your shift lever is in PARK
(P).
So be sure
the transfer case is in a drive gear
--
not in
NEUTRAL (N). And, if you leave the vehicle with
the engine running, it could overheat and even
catch fire. You or others could be injured. Don't
leave your vehicle with the engine running unless
you have to.
