How do I unlock iPhone 15 Pro Max stuck in VoiceOver mode?

iPhone 15 Pro Max locked out in VoiceOver mode. After using passcode it says JKL and remains locked. I want unlock and then turn off voiceover.

When using VoiceOver, you need to tap things twice. The first time identifies the thing that you have tapped, the second time activates it. So, for instance, if your passcode was 1234. You would tap the one, it would say one, then you tap it again to activate the 1 and move to the second digit. Do that through to the end and the second tap would activate that and then open the device. Then you need to go to Settings, again tapping things twice to activate them. Go to VoiceOver and turn it off. Hope that helps.
