Controls
Steering Lock
0 Steering is locked when the key
is withdrawn and the steering
lock is engaged. The key can be
withdrawn only in zero position.
Note:
Do not remove key from steer­
ing lock while the vehicle is in
motion as this will cause the
engagement of the steering lock
thus rendering the vehicle in­
operable.
1 Steering is unlocked.
(If necessary, move steering
wheel slightly to turn the key
clockwise to position “ 1".)
2 Driving position.
3 Starting position.
For starting and turning off the
engine, refer to page 47.
Notes:
The following items can be opera­
ted with the key in steering lock
position “ 1” :
Wiper, windshield washer, head­
lamp flasher, lighter, glove compart­
ment lamp, radio, seat heater, elec­
trically adjustable exterior mirror.
A warning buzzer sounds when the
key has been left in steering lock
positions “ 1” or “0” and the driver’s
door is opened.
With the engine at idle speed, the
charging rate of the alternator (out­
put) is limited.
It is therefore recommended to turn
off unnecessary electrical con­
sumers while driving in stop and go
traffic. This precaution helps to
avoid draining of the battery.
An effective measure to preserve
battery power is to turn off the fol­
lowing consumers:
Seat heater, heated rear window.
