engage the parking brake in
addition to shifting the automatic
transmission into park position P to
secure the vehicle.

gear selector lever in park position
P. With the SmartKey removed from
the starter switch, the gear selector
lever is locked in park position P.
If the vehicle’s electrical system is
malfunctioning, the gear selector
lever could remain locked in park
position P. To unlock the gear
selector lever manually, see
“Manually unlocking the gear
selector lever” (Y page 272).
