Ignition Switch

The combined ignition switch/anti-theft lock is located on the right
side of the steering column and has four positions:

0-LOCK position:

 The key can be removed or inserted in this

position. To remove the key, push it in at position I, then turn it to

0 and pull it out. When the key is removed, the steering column

will lock.

NOTE:

On cars equipped with automatic transmissions, the transmission

must be in Park before pushing and turning the key to the 0-LOCK
position.

Never turn the ignition switch to the lock position or remove the
key while the car is in motion; the steering wheel can lock causing
a loss of directional control, and an accident could result.

    I-ACCESSORY position:

 In this position, the accessory circuit is

on, but the ignition circuit is off.

if the key is difficult to turn from the 0 to the I position, turn the
steering wheel slightly to relieve pressure on the lock.

II-ON position:

 This is the normal running position.

   III-START position:

 The starter will engage when the key is

turned to this position.

To remind you to remove the ignition key when leaving your car, a

beeper will sound if the key is still in the ignition when you open the

driver's door. The beeper system is deactivated when you turn the

ignition to 0 (Lock) and fully remove the key.
