2006 Cadillac CTS CTS-V Owners Manual

PARK (P):  This position locks the rear wheels.  It is the
best position to use when you start the engine because
your vehicle cannot move easily.
Make sure the shift lever  is fully in PARK (P) before
starting the engine. Your vehicle has an automatic
transmission shift lock control system.  You must fully
apply your regular brakes before you can shift from
PARK (P) when the ignition key is  in ON. If you cannot
shift out of PARK (P), ease pressure on the shift lever
and release the button on  the shifter handle. Push
the shift lever all the  way into PARK (P) while pressing
the button on the shift  lever as you maintain brake
application. Then move the  shift lever into the gear
desired. See Shifting Out of  Park (P) on page 2-36.
{
CAUTION:
It is dangerous to get  out of your vehicle if the
shift lever is not fully  in PARK (P) with the
parking brake firmly set. Your  vehicle can roll.
Do not leave your vehicle  when the engine is
running unless you have to.  If you have left the
engine running, the vehicle can  move
suddenly. You or others could  be injured. To
be sure your vehicle will  not move, even when
you are on fairly level  ground, always set your
parking brake and move the  shift lever to
PARK (P). See Shifting Into Park  (P) (Automatic
Transmission) on page 2-34. If you  are pulling
a trailer, see Towing a  Trailer on page 4-39.
Notice:   Shifting to REVERSE (R) while your vehicle
is moving forward could damage the transmission.
The repairs would not be  covered by your warranty.
Shift to REVERSE (R) only after your  vehicle is
stopped.
REVERSE (R):  Use this gear to back up.
At low vehicle speeds, you  can also use REVERSE (R)
to rock your vehicle back and forth to get out of snow,
ice, or sand without damaging  your transmission. See If
Your Vehicle is Stuck in  Sand, Mud, Ice or Snow on
page 4-31 for additional  information.
