On most of the emergency brakes the release lever pulls on a cable that pulls on a small lever on the brake mechanism. To release the brake follow the foot pedal up under the dash. You should be able to see where the small cable hooks onto the mechanism. Using a small pry of some type you should be able move the small lever manually that the cable would pull on. That should release the brake. CAUTION. When the brake is released the foot pedal may snap back extremely fast. Make sure you are not in the way and that the vehicle will not roll away with you stuck under the dash, also keep your fingers clear when releasing the brake.
