1. Shift the select lever into the “P” position for automatic transmission models or “1st” for manual transmission models.

If your vehicle has a front underspoiler and rear underspoiler (if equipped), be careful not to scrape them when placing the vehicle on the carrier and when removing the vehicle from the carrier.
