Stay in Neutral Mode - Console Shifter - No Start
Use this feature to move your transmission from the park (P) position in the event of a no start situation. If your vehicle has a dead battery, it requires an external power source. Do not tow your vehicle in this mode.
Note: This feature only functions if your 12 volt battery has power and the starter can spin the engine. If vehicle battery voltage is not sufficient, it could need an external 12 volt power source, for example, jumper cables, battery charger or jump pack, for this feature to function.
Note: Once in this mode, maintain sufficient battery voltage or your vehicle returns to park.
