“START”—Starter motor on. The key
will return to the “ON” position when
released.
For starting tips, see page 236.
It is not a malfunction even if the needle
of the tachometer, fuel gauge, engine
coolant temperature gauge, engine oil
pressure gauge or voltmeter returns to
bottom position when the ignition switch is
turned to the “START” position.
“ON”—Engine on and all accessories
on.
This is the normal driving position.
“ACC”—Accessories such as the radio
operate, but the engine is off.
If you leave the key in the “ACC” or
“LOCK” position and open the driver’s
door, a buzzer will remind you to remove
the key.
“LOCK”—Engine is off and the steering
wheel is locked. The key can be re-
moved only at this position.
To turn the key from “ACC” to the “LOCK”
position, you must put the selector lever
in the “P” position.
Once you remove the key, the engine im-
mobilizer system is automatically set. (See
“Engine immobilizer system” on page 12.)
When starting the engine, the key may
seem stuck at the “LOCK” position. To
free it, first be sure the key is pushed all
the way in, and then rock the steering
wheel slightly while turning the key gently.
NOTICE
Do not leave the key in the “ON”
position if the engine is not running.
The battery will discharge and the
electronic ignition system could be
damaged.
