Park (P) This position mechani-
cally locks the transmission. Use
Park whenever you are turning off or
starting the engine. To shift out of

pedal and have your foot off the
accelerator pedal. Move the shift
lever to the side to shift out of the
Park position.
If you have done all of the above and
still cannot move the lever out of
Park, see Shift Lock Release on page

To avoid transmission damage, come
to a complete stop before shifting
into Park. The shift lever must be in
Park before you can remove the key
from the ignition switch.
