2008 Chrysler Sebring Owner Manual Convertible - Page 257

STARTING AND OPERATING 257 • Insert a key, screwdriver, or finger into the hole at the front of the cup holder and push and hold the manual override release lever forward. • While holding the release lever forward, move the gear selector lever from PARK to NEUTRAL. • Release the manual override. NOTE: If this occurs, even if the override is successful, it is recommended that you visit a dealer at your earliest possible convenience. Your dealer has diagnostic equipment to determine if the problem could recur. Automatic Transaxle Ignition Interlock System This system prevents the key from being removed unless the selector lever is in PARK. It also prevents shifting out of PARK unless the key is in the ON position and the brake pedal is applied. NOTE: If a malfunction occurs, the system will trap the key in the ignition switch lock cylinder to warn you that this safety feature is inoperable. The engine can be started and stopped, but the key cannot be removed until you obtain service. 5
