Brake-Shift Interlock Override WARNINGS

Use the brake-shift interlock override to move your transmission from the park position in the event of an electrical malfunction or if your vehicle has a dead battery. 1. Apply the parking brake and turn your ignition off before performing this procedure.

2. Locate your brake-shift interlock access slot. The slot is located below the CD player, in your center console storage bin. The access slot does not have a label. Note: Make sure that you correctly identify the access hole as not to damage the CD player. 3. Using a tool, press and hold the brake shift interlock switch. The shift buttons on the instrument panel will flash when your vehicle is in override mode. 4. With the override switch still held, press the neutral (N) button to shift from park. 5. Release the override button. 6. Your vehicle will remain in neutral (N) for wrecker towing purposes or can be shifted to the desired gear and driven (if possible). 7. Release the parking brake.

When doing this procedure, you need to take the transmission out of park (P) which means your vehicle can roll freely. To avoid unwanted vehicle movement, always fully apply the parking brake prior to doing this procedure. Use wheels chocks if appropriate. Do not drive your vehicle until you verify that the stoplamps are working. If the parking brake is fully released, but the brake warning lamp remains illuminated, the brakes may not be working properly. Have your vehicle checked as soon as possible. Note: See your authorized dealer as soon as possible if this procedure is used. Note: For some markets this feature is disabled. Note: This feature will only function if your 12-volt battery has power.
