Manual Park Release
WARNING: When doing this
procedure, you need to take the
transmission out of park (P) which means
your vehicle can roll freely. To avoid
unwanted vehicle movement, always fully
apply the parking brake prior to doing this
procedure. Use wheels chocks if
appropriate. WARNING:
If the parking brake is
fully released, but the brake warning lamp
remains illuminated, the brakes may not
be working properly. Have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible. WARNING: Do not drive your vehicle
until you verify that the stoplamps are
working.
Use the manual park release to move your
transmission from the park (P) position in the
event of an electrical malfunction or
emergency. Activating the Manual Park Release Cable
1. Apply the parking brake.
See Electric
Parking Brake (page 258).
Note: If vehicle battery is dead, for example,
no electrical power is available, you could
require an external power source to apply
the parking brake.
2. Using the key or a flat head screwdriver 4.7 in (120 mm), carefully open the access
cover under the arm rest console.
3. Turn the vehicle ignition on without starting the vehicle. Press the push to
start button without pressing the brake. 4. Once in the driver seat, fully apply the
brake pedal and hold. Do not release.
5. Insert a screwdriver or your car key into the Manual Park Release lever slot, pull
the Manual Park Release lever toward
the rear until the detent in the slot pops
up against the screwdriver or key. Allow
0.3 in (7 mm)
of full upward travel of the
detent, which locks in the park override
mode, and you can remove the
screwdriver or key. If done correctly, a
message on the instrument cluster
displays Park Not Available, Transmission
Not in Park or Shift System Fault. 248

WARNING: The system only warns
of vehicles detected by the radar sensor.
In some cases there may be no warning
or a delayed warning. Apply the brakes
when necessary. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in personal injury
or death. WARNING:
The system may not
detect stationary or slow moving vehicles
below
6 mph (10 km/h). WARNING:
The system does not
detect pedestrians or objects in the road. WARNING:
The system does not
detect oncoming vehicles in the same lane. WARNING:
The system may not
operate properly if the sensor is blocked.
Keep the windshield free from obstruction. WARNING:
The sensor may
incorrectly track lane markings as other
structures or objects. This can result in a
false or missed warning. The camera is mounted on the windshield
behind the interior mirror.
The radar sensor is in the lower grille.Note:
You cannot see the sensor. It is behind
a fascia panel.
Note: Keep the front of your vehicle free of
dirt, metal badges or objects. Vehicle front
protectors, aftermarket lights, additional
paint or plastic coatings could also degrade
sensor performance.
A message displays if something obstructs
the camera or the sensor. When something
blocks the sensor, the system cannot detect
a vehicle ahead and does not function. See
