Keys and Locks
Ignition Switch
The ignition switch is on the right
side of the steering column. It has
four positions:
LOCK (0)
ACCESSORY (I)
ON (II)
START (III)
LOCK (0)
— You can insert or
remove the key only in this
position. When you turn the key
from LOCK to ACCESSORY, you
may have to turn the steering
wheel to release the anti-theft lock.
To switch from ACCESSORY to
LOCK, you must push the key in
slightly as you turn it. If your car
has an automatic transmission, it
must also be in Park. The anti-theft
lock will lock the steering column
when you remove the key.
ACCESSORY (I)
— In this position,
you can operate the audio system
and cigarette lighter.
ON (II)
— This is the normal key
position when driving. All
features and accessories on the
car are usable. Several of the lights
on the instrument panel come on
as a test when you turn the
ignition switch from ACCESSORY
to ON (see page
31
).
START (III)
— Use this position
only to start the engine. The
switch returns to ON when you let
go of the key.
You will hear a reminder beeper if
you open either front door with
the key in the LOCK or
ACCESSORY position. Remove the
key to turn it off.
Instruments and Controls
Removing the key from the
ignition switch while driving
locks the steering. This can
cause you to lose control.
Remove the key from the igni-
tion switch only when parked.
