Jeep Wrangler: AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION — IF EQUIPPED / Ignition Park Interlock
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. This helps the driver avoid inadvertently leaving the vehicle without placing the transmission in PARK. This system also locks the transmission in PARK whenever the ignition is in the OFF mode.
NOTE:
The transmission is NOT locked in PARK when the ignition is in the ACC mode (even though the engine will be off). Ensure that the transmission is in PARK, and the ignition is OFF (not in ACC mode) before exiting the vehicle.

You must press and hold the brake pedal while
shifting out of PARK.
CAUTION!
Shift into or out of PARK or REVERSE only
after the vehicle has come to a complete
