Parking
When parking and leaving the vehicle,
proceed as follows:
Engage a gear (FIRST gear if facing uphill
or REVERSE if facing downhill) and leave
the wheels turned.
Stop the engine and engage the park
brake.
Always remove the key fob.
Block the wheels with a wedge or a stone
if the vehicle is parked on a steep slope.
NOTE:
NEVER leave the car with the gearbox in
NEUTRAL (or, if equipped with automatic
transmission, before placing the gear
selector in PARK).
AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION — IF
EQUIPPED
WARNING!
Never leave children unattended in the
vehicle. Always remove the key fob when
exiting the vehicle and take it with you.
WARNING!
Never use the PARK position as a substi -
tute for the park brake. Always apply the
park brake fully when exiting the vehicle
to guard against vehicle movement and
possible injury or damage.
Your vehicle could move and injure you
and others if it is not in PARK. Check by
trying to move the gear selector out of
PARK with the brake pedal released.
Make sure the transmission is in PARK
before exiting the vehicle.
It is dangerous to shift out of PARK or
NEUTRAL if the engine speed is higher
than idle speed. If your foot is not firmly
pressing the brake pedal, the vehicle
could accelerate quickly forward or in
reverse. You could lose control of the
vehicle and hit someone or something.
Only shift into gear when the engine is
idling normally and your foot is firmly
pressing the brake pedal.
The vehicle may not engage a newly
selected gear when shifting between
PARK, REVERSE, or DRIVE if the
vehicle is moving while shifting.
Unintended movement of a vehicle could
injure those in or near the vehicle. As
with all vehicles, you should never exit a
vehicle while the engine is running.
Before exiting a vehicle always come to a
complete stop, then apply the park
brake, shift the transmission into PARK,
turn the engine OFF, and remove the key
fob. When the ignition is in the LOCK/
OFF (key removal) position (or, with push
button start, when the ignition is in the
OFF mode), the transmission is locked in
PARK, securing the vehicle against
unwanted movement.
When leaving the vehicle, always make
sure the ignition is in the OFF mode,
remove the key fob from the vehicle, and
lock the vehicle.

When parking on a level surface, you may
shift the transmission into PARK first, and
then apply the parking brake.
When parking on a hill, apply the parking
brake before shifting the transmission to
PARK, otherwise the load on the transmis -
sion locking mechanism may make it diffi -
cult to move the gear selector out of PARK.
As an added precaution, turn the front
wheels toward the curb on a downhill grade
and away from the curb on an uphill grade.
When exiting the vehicle, always:
1. Apply the parking brake.
2. Shift the transmission into PARK.
3. Turn the ignition OFF.
4. Remove the key fob from the vehicle.
NOTE:
Block the wheels with a wedge or a stone if

TOWING A DISABLED VEHICLE
This section describes procedures for towing a disabled vehicle using a commercial towing service.
Proper towing or lifting equipment is
required to prevent damage to your vehicle.
Use only tow bars and other equipment
designed for this purpose, following equip-
ment manufacturer’s instructions. Use of
safety chains is mandatory. Attach a tow bar
or other towing devices to main structural
members of the vehicle, not to bumpers or
associated brackets. State and local laws
regarding vehicles under tow must be
observed.
NOTE:
You must ensure that the Auto Park Brake
feature is disabled before towing this
vehicle to avoid inadvertent Electric Park
Brake engagement. The Auto Park Brake
feature is enabled or disabled via the
customer programmable features in the
Uconnect Settings.
Vehicles with a discharged battery, or total
electrical failure when the Electric Park
Brake (EPB) is engaged, will need a wheel
dolly or jack to raise the rear wheels off the
ground when moving the vehicle onto a
flatbed.
If you must use the accessories (wipers,
defrosters, etc.) while being towed, the igni -
tion must be in the ON/RUN mode.
NOTE:
The Safehold feature will engage the Electric
Park Brake whenever the driver's door is
opened (if the battery is connected, ignition
is ON, transmission is not in PARK, and
brake pedal is released). If you are towing
this vehicle with the ignition in the ON/RUN
mode, you must manually disable the Elec -tric Park Brake each time the driver's door is
opened by pressing the brake pedal and then
releasing the EPB.
If the vehicle’s battery is discharged, refer to
“Gear Selector Override” in this section for
instructions on shifting the automatic trans
-
mission out of PARK so that the vehicle can
be moved.
