Purpose, Function
The shift-lock system operates when the ignition is switched to ON and the brake pedal is not depressed, and inhibits the selector lever from being shifted from the P position to other positions.
If the shift-lock cannot be released by the normal operation, it can be released manually by inserting a flathead screwdriver into the shift-lock release hole (emergency manual shift-lock release system).

Operation
Shift-lock Release Conditions
The shift-lock is released when all of the following conditions are met (except shift-lock release system is operated manually).
Selector lever is in P position
Ignition is switched to ON
Brake pedal is depressed (brake light switch is on)
Shift-lock operation conditions (shift-lock release conditions not satisfied)
When the shift-lock release conditions are not met, the shift-lock operates.
Because there is no energization to the shift-lock solenoid at this time, the shift-lock solenoid is not energized.
As a result, the lock slider is positioned where it restricts the selector lever movement and the selector lever cannot be moved to any position other than P.

Shift-lock release (Shift-lock release conditions are satisfied)
When the shift-lock release conditions are met, the shift-lock does not operate.
At this time, the shift-lock solenoid is energized because there is energization to the shift-lock solenoid.
As a result, the selector lever can be moved to any position other than P by moving the lock slider to a position where it does not restrict the selector lever movement.

Emergency Manual shift-lock release system operation
The emergency manual shift-lock release system can be released manually even if the shift-lock release conditions are not met.
The lock slider restriction can be cancelled forcibly by pressing the shift-lock override button using a flathead screwdriver.
As a result, the selector lever can be moved to any position other than P.
