on

and you’re parking on the left side, your
wheels should point to the right.
If
there
is
no curb when you’re parking
uphill, turn the wheels
to
the right.

Torque
Lock
(Automatic
Transmission)
If
you are parking on a
hill
and you don’t
shift your transmission into
P
(Park)
properly, the weight
of
the vehicle may
put
too
much
force on
the
parking pawl
in
the
transmission.
You
may find it difficult
to pull the
shift
lever out of
P
(Park). This
is
called “torque lock.”
To
prevent torque
lock, always
be
sure to shift into
P
(Park)
properly before you leave the driver’s
seat.
To
find
out
how, see “Shifting into
P
(Park)”
in
the Index.
When you are ready to drive, move the
shift lever out of
P
(Park)
BEFORE
you
release the parking brake.
If
“torque lock”
does
occur,
you
may
need to have another vehicle push yours
a
little uphill to
take
some of the pressure
from the transmission,
so
you
can pull the
shift lever out of
P
(Park).
