AutoPark — Rotary Shifter and 8-Speed Transmission
Only
AutoPark is a supplemental feature to assist in placing the
vehicle in PARK should the situations on the following
pages occur. It is a back up system and should not be relied
upon as the primary method by which the driver shifts the
vehicle into PARK.
The conditions under which AutoPark will engage are
outlined on the following pages.
WARNING!
• Driver inattention could lead to failure to place the vehicle
in PARK. ALWAYS DO A VISUAL CHECK that your
vehicle is in PARK by verifying that a solid (not blinking)
“P” is indicated in the Instrument Cluster Display and
near the gear selector. If the "P" indicator is blinking, your
vehicle is not in PARK. As an added precaution, always
apply the parking brake when exiting the vehicle.
• AutoPark is a supplemental feature. It is not designed
to replace the need to shift your vehicle into PARK. It is
a back up system and should not be relied upon as the
primary method by which the driver shifts the vehicle
into PARK.
