Shifting Into PARK (P)

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 won't move, even
when you're on fairly level ground, use the steps
that follow. If you're pulling a trailer, see
"Towing a Trailer" in the Index.
