vehicle is free from obstruction and that
there is enough room for you to operate the
liftgate. Objects too close to your vehicle,
for example a wall, garage door or another
vehicle may come into contact with the
moving liftgate. This could damage the
liftgate and its components.
Note: Make sure that you fully close the
liftgate to prevent cargo from falling out.

Note:
You can start your vehicle in this
position.
Drive (D)
Drive (D) is the normal driving position, and
allows automatic upshifts and downshifts
through all available gears.
Sport (S)
Putting the vehicle in sport (S):
• Provides additional engine braking and
extends lower gear operation to enhance
performance for uphill climbs, hilly terrain
or mountainous areas. This increases
engine RPM during engine braking.
• Provides additional lower gear operation
through the automatic transmission shift
strategy.
• Provides gear selection more quickly and
at higher engine speeds.
Note: You can shift into sport at any vehicle
speed. SHIFTING YOUR VEHICLE INTO
GEAR
The gear selector is located near the middle
of the instrument panel. Press a button to
select a gear.

Engine damage can occur if you hold
high engine speed without shifting.
TEMPORARY NEUTRAL MODE
What Is Temporary Neutral Mode
This mode keeps your vehicle in neutral (N)
when you switch your vehicle off. Use this

when your vehicle is in this mode. See What
Is Automatic Return to Park (P)
(page 209).
Temporary Neutral Mode Limitations
Your vehicle could shift to park (P) after 30
minutes, or when the vehicle battery charge
level is low. Prolonged use of this mode can
cause the vehicle battery to run out of
charge.

MANUAL PARK RELEASE
What Is Manual Park Release
Manual park release allows you to move your
transmission out of the park (P) position in
the event of an electrical malfunction or
emergency.
Manual Park Release Precautions
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.
Using Manual Park Release
Activating Manual Park Release Cable
Use this procedure to move your
transmission out of park (P) for towing.
1. Apply the parking brake.
See Electric
Parking Brake (page 221).
Note: If the vehicle battery has no charge,
use an external power source to apply the
parking brake.
2. Remove the manual park release access
cover. The cover is located under the
dash below the steering wheel. Do not
pull the orange tether. 3. Sit in the driver seat.
4. Without your foot on the brake pedal,
switch the ignition to the on position.
5. Fully press the brake pedal. Do not release.

6. Pull the tether outward towards you.
Move the tether to the lower right-hand
corner and seat metal bead in the pocket. Note:
A confirmation message will appear
in the information display when your vehicle
is out of park (P). If you do not receive a
confirmation message, release the tether
and start the procedure again.
7. Release the parking brake. See Electric
Parking Brake (page 221).
Note: Your transmission is out of the park
(P) position. To avoid unwanted vehicle
movement, press and hold the brake pedal.
8. Without your foot on the brake pedal, switch the ignition to the off position.
9. Disconnect the negative (black) battery cable from the battery.
Note: If the vehicle detects wheel movement
before the battery is disconnected, the
electric parking brake could apply
automatically. Confirm vehicle rolls freely
before towing. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in vehicle damage
not covered by the vehicle warranty. Returning Your Vehicle to Normal
Mode
1. Once it is safe to do so, reconnect the
negative (black) battery cable to the
battery.
2. Apply the parking brake.
Note: If the vehicle battery has no charge,
use an external power source to apply the
parking brake.
Note: Do not pull the tether until you are in
the driver seat.
3. Once in the driver seat, fully apply the brake pedal and hold. Do not release.
Pull the orange tether outward towards
the driver seat.
4. Move the tether towards the left and release to return it to the rest position.
