shift from PARK

is
in the
ON
position. See "Automatic Transaxle" in the Index.
If you cannot shift out of PARK (P), ease pressure
on
the shift lever

--
as you maintain brake application. Then
move the shift into the gear you wish. (Press the shift
lever button before moving the shift lever.)

shift out of PARK
(P),
try this:

OFF.

Step

soon
as
you can.
