Automatic Shift Lock (ASL) The Automatic Shift Lock (ASL) in Park (P) and Neutral (N) prevents drive positions from being engaged inadvertently, which would cause the vehicle to move. To release ASL, you must switch on the ignition, depress the brake pedal and hold it down while pressing the release button on the selector lever handle in the direction of the arrow → fig. 101 to move the selector lever out of Park (P) and into a drive gear. The ASL is not engaged if the selector lever is moved quickly through Neutral (N) (e.g., when shifting from Reverse (R) to Drive (D/S)).

This makes it possible to “rock” the vehicle backwards and forwards if it is stuck in snow or mud. The ASL engages automatically if the brake pedal is not depressed, the selector lever is in Neutral (N) for more than about 1 second, and the vehicle is traveling no faster than about 3 mph (5 km/h).
