If it's manual and the ignition is in the on position you can push start it like any other manual car with a dead battery. The ecu tune does the same process as it would do when the starter kicks over fuel injection or not.

But it's no substitute for not having jumper cables in your car to help a friend or something, you can practice it a bit if your bored honestly up a hill or down a incline in reverse or 1st I used to do it when I had a manual corolla, but don't keep doing it repeatedly for no reason.
