{ CAUTION:
It is dangerous to get out of the vehicle if the shift
lever is not fully in P (Park) with the parking brake
firmly set. The vehicle can roll.
Do not leave the vehicle when the engine is
running unless you have to. If you have left the
engine running, the vehicle can move suddenly.
You or others could be injured. To be sure the
vehicle will not move, even when you are on fairly
level ground, always set the parking brake and
move the shift lever to P (Park). See Shifting Into
Park on page 2-47. If you are pulling a trailer, see
Towing a Trailer on page 4-50.
{ CAUTION:
If you have Four-Wheel Drive, the vehicle will
be free to roll — even if the shift lever is in
P (Park) — if the transfer case is in Neutral.
So, be sure the transfer case is in a drive gear,
Two-Wheel Drive High or Four-Wheel Drive
High or Four-Wheel Drive Low — not in Neutral.
See Shifting Into Park on page 2-47.

Notice: Shifting to R (Reverse) while the vehicle is
moving forward could damage the transmission.

warranty. Shift to R (Reverse) only after the vehicle

To rock the vehicle back and forth to get out of snow,
ice, or sand without damaging the transmission,
