dead battery FIAT 500E 2017 2.G Owners Manual

WARNING!(Continued)
allow your vehicle to roll away if it is not secured
by the parking brake or other means. Activating the
Manual Park Release on an unsecured vehicle could
lead to serious injury or death for those in or
around the vehicle.
In order to move the vehicle in cases where the trans-
mission will not shift out of PARK (such as a dead
battery), a Manual Park Release is available. If a dead 12
volt battery is the cause of the condition refer to “Jump
Start Procedure — 12 Volt Battery” before performing
the Manual Park Release.
To perform the Manual Park Release follow these steps:
1. To prevent the vehicle from rolling unintentionally, firmly apply the parking brake.
2. If possible, raise the front driver’s side of the vehicle to provide access to the transmission.
3. Working from underneath the vehicle, remove the black rubber plug from the front of the Park module
(a black canister mounted on the front of the trans-
mission). 4. Using a T25 driver bit, rotate the Manual Park
Release shaft (located just behind the rubber plug)
clockwise, at least 20 turns, to release the Park
mechanism. The vehicle is now out of PARK and can
be moved.
5. Reinstall the rubber plug.
6. Release the parking brake only when a driver is in the vehicle, or the vehicle is secured by other means.
The Manual Park Release will be reset automatically
once the vehicle is restarted.
