  1. Release the throttle pedal completely and brake to a complete stop.
  2. Place the transmission in PARK.
  3. Engage the park brake.
  4. Slowly release the brake pedal and make sure the transmission is in PARK before exiting the vehicle.
  5. Turn the engine off and remove the key to prevent unauthorized use.
WARNING
A rolling vehicle can cause serious injury. Always place the transmission in PARK and engage the park brake when stopping the engine.
