’04MY CELICA U (L/O 0308)  
If you cannot shift automatic  
transmission selector lever  
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:  
3. Insert your finger into the hole to  
push down the shift lock override  
button. You can shift out of “P”  
position only while pushing the but-  
ton.  
4. Shift into “N” position.  
5. Insert the cover.  
1. Turn the ignition key to “LOCK”  
position. Make sure the parking  
brake is applied.  
6. Start the engine. For your safety,  
keep the brake pedal depressed.  
2. Pry up the cover with a flatbladed  
screwdriver or equivalent.  
Be sure to have the system checked by  
your Toyota dealer as soon as possible.
