Leaving Your Vehicle With the Engine Running
(Automatic Transmission Models Only)
1 CAUTION
It can be dangerous to leave your vehicle with the engine running.
Your vehicle could move suddenly
if the shift lever is not fully in P
(Park) with the parking brake firmly set. If you have four-wheel drive
with a manual transfer case shift lever and your transfer case\
is in
N
(Neutral), your vehicle will be free to roll, even if your shift lever is in
P (Park). So be sure the transfer case is in a drive gear-not in N
(Neutral). And, if you leave the vehicle with the engine running, it
could overheat and even catch fire. You or others could be injured.
I Don’t leave your vehicle with the engine running unless you have to.
If you have to leave your vehicle with the engine running, be sure your
vehicle is in
P (Park) and your parking brake is firmly set before you leave it.
If you have four-wheel drive with a manual transfer case shift le\
ver, be sure
that the transfer case is in
a drive gear-not in N (Neutral). After you’ve
moved the shift lever into the
P (Park) position, hold the regular brake pedal
down. Then, see if you can move the shift lever away from P (Park) without
first pulling it toward you.
If you can, it means that the shift lever wasn’t fully
locked into
P (Park).
Parking Your b bide (Manual Transmission Models
Before you get out of your vehicle, put your manual transmissi\
on in R
(Reverse) and firmly apply the parking brake.
If you have four-wheel drive with a manual transfer case shift le\
ver, be sure
your transfer case is in a drive gear. Your vehicle could roll
if it isn’t.

AM407002
According to the American Medical Association, a 180-pound (82 kg) person
who drinks three 12-ounce
(355 ml) bottles of beer in an hour will end up
with a BAC of about
0.06 percent. The person would reach the same BAC
by drinking three 4-ounce
(120 ml) glasses of wine or three mixed drinks if
each had 142 ounces (45 ml) of a liquor like whiskey, gin or vodka.
It's the amount of alcohol that counts. For example,
if the same person drank
three double martinis
(3 ounces or 90 ml of liquor each) within an hour, the
person's BAC
would be close to 0.12 percent. A person who consumes food
just before or during drinking will have a slightly lower BAC level.
