lever out of Park if the normal
method of pushing on the brake
pedal does not work. This procedure
is also used to release the Reverse
Lockout.

Make sure the ignition switch is in
the LOCK (0) position.
To release the Reverse Lockout,

the ACCESSORY(I) position.
3.
Put a cloth on the edge of the Shift
Lock Release slot cover next to
the shift lever. Use a small flat-
tipped screwdriver or small metal
plate (neither are included in the
tool kit) to remove the cover.

cover.

Shift Lock Release slot, then
install a new cover. Make sure the

restart the engine.

developing a problem. Have the
vehicle checked by your Honda
dealer.
