Shifting Out

Your Oldsmobile has a brake-transaxle shift interlock.

.must
fully apply your regular brakes before you can
shift
from
PARK (P) when the ignition is in the‘RUN
position. See “Automatic Transaxle Operation” in
the Index.
If you cannot shift out of PARK
(P),
ease pressure
on
the shift lever by pushing
it
all the way into PARK
(P),
while keeping the brake pedal pushed down. Release the
shift
leyer
button if you have a console shift. Then move
the shift lever out of PARK (P), being sure to press the
shift lever button if you have a console shift.
If you ever hold the brake pedal down but still can’t,
shift out of PARK
(P),
try
this:
1.
Turn the key to the
OFF
position.
2.
Apply and hold the brake until the end of Step
4.
3.
Shift to NEUTRAL
(N).
4. Start the engine and shift to the drive gear you want.
5.
Have the vehicle fixed as
soon
as
you can.
Parking Over Things That Burn
Things that can burn could touch hot exhaust
parts under your vehicle and ignite. Don’t park
over papers, leaves, dry grass
or
other things that
can burn.
