Park position (P)

Select the P position when starting or parking.
Shiftlock
When P has been selected, the transmission is mechanically blocked in this position. The brake pedal must be depressed and the ignition must be in at least mode II (see page 86) before the gear lever can be moved from the P position.
Always apply the parking brake when the vehicle is parked. Press the control to apply the brake, see page 124.

CAUTION
The vehicle must be stationary when position P is selected.
