Forcible Release Of Shift Lock

When an electrical or mechanical malfunction occurs in shift lock system, selector lever shift operation from the "P" position becomes impossible. When shift lock release button (A) is pressed in this state, stopper (B) is forcibly pressed into shift lock unit, and then it becomes possible to release shift lock. By this operation, shift operation becomes possible when a malfunction occurs in shift lock system.
