Shifting out of Park

system. You have to fully apply the
brakes before you can shift from

ON/RUN or ACC/ACCESSORY.
SeeAutomatic Transmission (Six
Speed) on page 9‑25 orAutomatic
Transmission (Four Speed) on
page 9‑28.
The shift lock control system is
designed to do the following:

being removed unless the shift
lever is in P (Park).
.Prevent movement of the shift
lever out of P (Park), unless the
ignition is in ON/RUN or ACC/
ACCESSORY and the regular
brake pedal is applied.
The shift lock control system is
always functional except in the case
of a dead battery or low voltage
(less than 9 V) battery. If the vehicle has an uncharged
battery or a battery with low voltage,
try charging or jump starting the
battery. See
