To Reset The Manual Park Release:
1. Pull the tether strap out again, then release it.
2. Allow the tether to retract with the lever back to its
original position.
3. Verify that the transmission is in PARK.
4. Confirm that the tether has retracted fully and re-
install the access cover. If the access cover cannot be
re-installed, repeat steps 1 through 3.
FREEING A STUCK VEHICLE
If your vehicle becomes stuck in mud, sand or snow, it
can often be moved using a rocking motion. Turn the
steering wheel right and left to clear the area around the
front wheels. Then shift back and forth between DRIVE
and REVERSE while gently pressing the accelerator.
NOTE: Shifts between DRIVE and REVERSE can only be
achieved at wheel speeds of 5 mph (8 km/h) or less.
Whenever the transmission remains in NEUTRAL for
more than two seconds, you must press the brake pedal
to engage DRIVE or REVERSE.
Use the least amount of accelerator pedal pressure that
will maintain the rocking motion without spinning the
wheels or racing the engine.
NOTE: Push the ESC Off switch to place the Electronic
Stability Control (ESC) system in Partial Off mode,
before rocking the vehicle. Refer to “Electronic Brake
Control” in “Safety” for further information. Once the
vehicle has been freed, push the ESC Off switch again to
restore ESC On mode.
