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.

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.

Insert the key in the shift lock
release slot.

Remove the key from the shift
lock release slot, then reinstall the
cover. Make sure the notch on the
cover is on the left 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.

Put a cloth on the notch of the
shift lock release slot cover. Using
a small flat-tipped screwdriver or a
metal fingernail file, carefully pry
on the notch of the cover to
remove it.
