CAUTION
If the engine is not running, the pow-
er assist for the brakes and steering
will not work so steering and braking
will be much harder than usual.
If you cannot shift the selector lever
out of ”P” position to other positions
even though the brake pedal is de-
pressed, use the shift lock override but-
ton as follows:
1. Turn the ignition key to ”LOCK”
position. Make sure the parking
brake is set.
2. Pry up the cover with a flat- bladed
screwdriver or equivalent.
3. Insert the screwdriver or equivalent
into the hole to push down the shift
lock override button. You can shift
out of ”P” position only while push-
ing the button.
4. Shift into ”N” position.
5. Insert the cover.
6. Start the engine. For your safety,
keep the brake pedal depressed.
Be sure to have the system checked by
your Toyota dealer as soon as possible.
