You need enough power to run the car's computers. If the battery is too low then hook up jumper cables to power up the car.
With your foot OFF the brake pedal hold the Start button down for at least 7 seconds. This puts the car in "Run" mode as if the engine was running (even though it isn't). The radio and dash should power up. Now you can put your foot on the brake to make the car release the shift lock and shift the transmission into neutral. Just FYI that if you only hold the Start button down for a few seconds then the car goes into "Accessory" mode where the radio works but the car won't release the shift lock.
Good luck with the car!
