When turning from “ACC” to “LOCK”
First, set the gearshift lever to the “P” (PARK) po-
sition, and then slowly turn the ignition switch to
the “LOCK” position while pressing it.
NOTE
l
The ignition switch cannot be turned to the
“LOCK” position unless the gearshift lever
is in the “P” (PARK) position.
CAUTION
l
Do not turn the ignition switch to the
“LOCK” position while driving. The
steering wheel will be locked, causing loss
of control.
l
If the engine is stopped while driving, the
brake servomechanism will cease to func-
tion and braking efficiency will deterio-
rate. Also, the power steering system will
not function and it will require greater
manual effort to operate the steering.
CAUTION
l
Do not leave the ignition switch in the
“ON” or “ACC” position for a long time
when the engine is not running, doing so
will cause the battery to be discharged.
l
Do not turn the ignition switch to the
“START” position when the engine is
running, doing so could damage the start-
er motor.
