IN CASE OF EMERGENCY 241
NOTE:
There are steps that you can take to slow down an
impending overheat condition:
If your Air Conditioner (A/C) is on, turn it off. The
A/C system adds heat to the engine cooling
system and turning the A/C off can help remove
this heat.
You can also turn the temperature control to
maximum heat, the mode control to floor and
the blower control to high. This allows the heater
core to act as a supplement to the radiator and
aids in removing heat from the engine cooling
system.
GEAR SELECTOR OVERRIDE
If a malfunction occurs and the gear selector
cannot be moved out of the PARK (P) position, you
can use the following procedure to temporarily
move the gear selector:
1. Turn the engine OFF.
2. Apply the parking brake.
3. Using a screwdriver or similar tool, carefully
separate the shifter bezel and boot assembly
from the center console, and raise it up to
access the gear selector mechanism.

4. Press and maintain firm pressure on the brake
pedal.
5. Insert a small screwdriver or similar tool down
into the gear selector override access hole (at
the right front corner of the gear selector
assembly), and push and hold the override
release lever down.

6. Move the gear selector to the NEUTRAL (N)
position.
7. The vehicle may then be started in NEUTRAL
(N).
8. Reinstall the gear selector boot.
WARNING!
You or others can be badly burned by hot engine
coolant (antifreeze) or steam from your radiator.
If you see or hear steam coming from under the
hood, do not open the hood until the radiator
has had time to cool. Never try to open a cooling
system pressure cap when the radiator or
coolant bottle is hot.
