Changing the selector lever
position
A detent prevents inadvertent shifts into
some selector lever positions. To re-
lease the shift-lock mechanism, press
the button on the front of the selector
handle (arrow).
While the vehicle is stationary and
before shifting out of "Park" or
"Neutral," depress the footbrake in or-
der to disengage the selector lever's
lock mechanism (shift-lock).
Hold the footbrake down until starting
off. Otherwise, the vehicle will "creep"
when a drive position is engaged.<

vehicle with a running engine repre-
sents a potential safety hazard.<
