You cannot. It only exists on the iPad. You are going to have to put the device into Recovery Mode and restore it to factory. See this support document for restoring a device that you forgot the passcode for. It will wipe the device. If you forgot the passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support


This might help as well, What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
