Anybody have a Toyota Town Ace?

We have one, and there's a little red button at the side of the automatic gear shift, and we don't know what it's for, as it's written in Japanese! (An no, it doesn't mention it in the handbook!). Just wondered if anybody can put us out of our enquisitive misery!

Answers:
It's a service button, Jap imports will only come out of park with the ignition on and your foot on the brake but then you get that horrible bleeping leaving the ignition on.
the red button allows the box to be put in neutral without that hassle.
It might be a button for a overdrive gear that's the only thing I can think of.
More than likely it is for overdrive. The other possibility is some mid to high performance cars have a tranny button that causes the the car to shift harder and at higher rpm's for a performance boost. Just give it a push while you're close to home and see what happens. If it's close and easy to get to it won't hurt anything.
Hmm,

we used to have one, but didn't have that red button.

I can only guess it''s for some light or engine function.
