Pontiac 2005 Bonneville - Manual (Page 91)

Automatic Transaxle Operation
Your automatic transaxle may have a shift lever located
on the console between the seats or on the steering
column.
There are several
different positions for
your shift lever.
PARK (P): This position locks your front wheels. It is
the best position to use when you start your engine
because your vehicle can not move easily.
{ 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) on
page 2-31. If you are pulling a trailer, see
Towing a Trailer (V8 Engine) on page 4-36 or
Towing a Trailer (V6 Engine) on page 4-36.
