Jeep 2005 Wrangler - Manual (Page 186)

WARNING!
Unintended movement of a vehicle could injure
those in and near the vehicle. As with all vehicles,
you should never exit a vehicle while the engine is
running. Before exiting a vehicle, you should always
shift the vehicle into P (Park), remove the key from
the ignition, and apply the parking brake. Once the
key is removed from the ignition, the transmission
shift lever is locked in the P (Park) position, securing
the vehicle against unwanted movement. Further-
more, you should never leave children unattended
inside a vehicle.
The following indicators should be used to ensure that
you have engaged the transmission shift lever into the P
(Park) position:
• When shifting into P (Park), depress the button on the
shift lever and firmly move the lever all the way
forward until it stops.
• Look at the shift indicator window on the console to
ensure it is in the P (Park) position.
• When engaged in P (Park), you will not be able to
move the shifter rearward without depressing the shift
lever button.
