W H AT TO D O I N E M E R G E N C I E S • While holding the locking tab in the disengaged position, pull the tether strap to rotate the lever up and rearward, until it locks in place in the vertical position. The vehicle is now out of PARK and can be towed. Release the parking brake only when the vehicle is securely connected to a tow vehicle. To Reset The Manual Park Release: • Push the latch (at the base of the lever, on the rear side) rearward (away from the lever) to unlatch the lever. • Rotate the Manual Park Release lever forward and down, to its original position, until the locking tab snaps into place to secure the lever. • Pull up gently on the tether strap to confirm that the lever is locked in its stowed position. • Tuck the tether strap into the base of the console. Reinstall the console storage bin. WARNING! Always secure your vehicle by fully applying the parking brake, before activating the Manual Park Release. Activating the Manual Park Release will allow your vehicle to roll away if it is not secured by the parking brake or by proper connection to a tow vehicle. Activating the Manual Park Release on an unsecured vehicle could lead to serious injury or death for those in or around the vehicle. 91
