MANUAL PARK RELEASE — 8–SPEED TRANSMISSION
In order to push or tow the vehicle in cases where the trans- mission will not shift out of PARK (such as a dead battery), a Manual Park Release is available.
Manual Park Release Pull Strap
Follow these steps to activate the Manual Park Release:
Firmly apply the parking brake.
Using a small screwdriver or similar tool, remove the Manual Park Release access cover, which is just above the parking brake release handle, below and to the left of the steering column.
Press and maintain firm pressure on the brake pedal.
Using the screwdriver or similar tool, push the Manual Park Release lever locking tab (just below the middle of the lever) to the right.
While holding the locking tab in the disengaged position, pull the tether strap to rotate the lever rearward, until it locks in place pointing towards the driver's seat. Release the locking tab and verify that the Manual Park Release lever is locked in the released 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.
