Shiftlock Override - Volvo 2009 S40 Owner's Manual

Overriding the shiftlock system
Shiftlock prevents the gear selector from being
moved out of Park unless the ignition key is in
position II and the brake pedal is depressed.
In certain cases it may be necessary to move
the gear selector from the Park position man-
ually.
To manually override the Shiftlock
system:
1. Apply the parking brake.
2. Depress the brake pedal.
3. There is a small cover below P-R-N-D on
the gear selector panel. Open the rear edge
of the panel.
4. Insert the key blade, see page 120, into the
opening and press it down until it bottoms.
5. With the key blade pressed down, move
the gear selector out of the P position.
