Acura 2009 Accord Sedan - Manual (Page 517)

Put a cloth on the edge of the shift
lock release slot cover. Use a small
flat-tipped screwdriver or metal
fingernail file to carefully pry up
the edge of the cover and remove
it from the slot. Insert a key or built-in key in the
shift lock release slot.
Push down on the key or built-in
key while you press the release
button on the shift lever and move
the shift lever out of Park to
neutral.
Remove the key or built-in key
from the shift lock release slot,
then reinstall the cover. Make
sure the notch on the cover is on
the rear side. Press the brake
pedal, and restart the engine.
If you need to use the shift lock
release, it means your vehicle is
developing a problem. Have it
checked by your dealer.
