While the vehicle is off you'll need to pop up the little cap by your shifter, which you can do with a flat head screw driver. You'll need stick the screwdriver down into the opening and will be then able to press on the brake pedal and move the shifter to neutral. You'll want to use a pretty long screwdriver to do this. This will shift your transmission into neutral allowing you to tow the vehicle.
