If You Cannot Shift Automatic Transmission Selector Lever - Toyota Lexusc Owner's Handbook Manual

IF YOU CANNOT SHIFT AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION SELECTOR LEVER
If you cannot shift the selector lever out of "P" position to
other positions even though the brake pedal is depressed,
use the shift lock override button as follows:
1 Turn the ignition key to "LOCK". Make sure the parking
brake is applied.
2 Pry up the cover with a flat-bladed screwdriver or
equivalent.
IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY
3 Push down the shift lock override button. You can shift out
of "P" position only while pushing the button.
4 Shift into "N" position.
Insert the cover. Start the engine. For your safety, keep
the brake pedal depressed.
Be sure to have the system checked by your Lexus dealer as
soon as possible.
