WARNING: 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.
WARNING: 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.
WARNING: Do not drive your vehicle until you verify that the stoplamps are working.
Use the manual park release to move your transmission from the park (P) position in the event of an electrical malfunction or emergency.
The front outboard and rear safety restraints in the vehicle are combination lap and shoulder belts.
Insert the belt tongue into the proper buckle (the buckle closest to the direction the tongue is coming from) until you hear a snap and feel it latch. Make sure that you securely fasten the tongue in the buckle. To unfasten, press the release button and remove the tongue from the buckle.
