HONDA 2011 CR-V - Manual (Page 325)

This allows you to move the shift
lever out of Park if the normal
method of pushing on the brake
pedal and pressing the release
button does not work.
Set the parking brake.
Remove the key from the ignition
switch.
Insert the key in the shift lock
release slot.
Push down on the key while you
press the release button on the
shift lever and move the shift lever
out of Park to neutral.
If you need to use the shift lock
release, it means your vehicle is
developing a problem. Have the
vehicle checked by your dealer.
Remove the key from the shift
lock release slot, then reinstall the
cover. Make sure the notch on the
cover is on the right side. Insert
the key into the ignition switch,
press the brake pedal, and restart
the engine.
Put a cloth on the edge of the shift
lock release slot cover to prevent
scratches. Using a small flat-tip
screwdriver or metal fingernail file,
carefully pry on the edge of the
cover to remove it.
