But how can I deactivate the parking brake manually with an auto gearbox?

That won't help with reversing, if you remove the key the engine will stop!
AFAIK the park break can be operated manually on an auto just the same as on a manual. Press it down to release it, you don't have to start moving and wait for the auto-release. The End

 I got the wrong end of the stick- I thought it was a comment about parking without having the handbrake on.

Duh! I couldn't deactivate the parking brake because I wasn't pressing the brake pedal at the same time... I don't deserve to be here...
