Jeep Wrangler: AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION — IF EQUIPPED / Brake/Transmission Shift Interlock System

running and the brake pedal must be pressed.
The brake pedal must also be pressed to shift

vehicle is stopped or moving at low speeds.
This vehicle is equipped with an Ignition Park
Interlock which requires the transmission to be
in PARK before the ignition can be turned to the
OFF mode...
The transmission gear range (PRNDM) is
displayed both beside the gear selector and in
the instrument cluster. To select a gear range,
push the lock button on the gear selector and
move the selector rearward or forward...
