If the vehicle has a manual transmission, see Parking (Manual Transmission) on page 9-24. If parking on a hill and pulling a trailer, see Driving Characteristics and Towing Tips on page 9-54. Automatic Transmission The Driver Information Center (DIC) displays the current gear selected in the lower left corner. When Sport Mode is active, an S is displayed. If Manual Mode or Electronic Range Select (ERS) Mode are active, an M and the current gear selected (Tap Shift) or the maximum gear allowed (ERS Mode) are displayed next to the M. P (Park): This position locks the rear wheels. It is the best position to use when starting the engine because the vehicle cannot move easily. { Warning 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. 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).
