The red button enables movement of the gearshift lever from P position when the engine is not running so that the car can be moved (for a push in the garage, for example). Normally the ignition must be on (or engine running) and the foot brake depressed before the gearshift lever can be moved from the Park – the red button is an override for this safety feature.
