Ignition/Starter Switch with
Steering Lock
The steering is equipped with an anti-theft ig-
nition lock.
For your safety, fasten safety belts.
Manual transmission:
Move gearshift lever to Neutral.
Automatic transmission:
Move gearshift lever to Neutral or Park.
Never start or let the engine run in an en-
closed unventilated area. Exhaust fumes
from the engine contain carbon monoxide
which is a colorless and odorless gas. Car-
bon monoxide can be fatal if inhaled.
There are 4 positions:
0 Steering locked. All electric circuits wired
through the ignition switch are turned off.
The ignition key can only be withdrawn in
the " 0 " position. The parking lights can be
operated in this position by pushing the turn
signal indicator lever up and down (also see
"Parking lights").
1 Steering unlocked. In this position all elec-
tric circuits are operational except for the
following: turn signals, back-up lights, out-
side mirror remote control, rear window de-
fogger/defroster and fresh air ventilation.
2 Ignition on, steering unlocked. All electric
circuits are operational. With the engine
stationary, the central warning light and all
individual warning lights located in both
combination instruments will light up for a
bulb check. If the engine oil level is too low
the central warning light will flash. (Lack of
engine oil can, in comparison with all other
functions, only be checked with the engine
turned off and with the vehicle level.)
3 The starter is operated by turning the ig-
nition key to the right. As soon as the engine
starts, release the key. It will spring back to
position "2". With the engine running, the
central and individual warning lights should
go out. The STOP LAMP will go out after
depressing the brake pedal and the PARK
BRAKE light after fully releasing the parking
brake (see "Central warning light system").
To conserve battery power, the electric cir-
cuits for headlights, rear window defogger/
defroster and wiper/washer system are
temporarily interrupted during the starting
process.
The starter should not be operated for more
than 10 to 15 seconds at a time. If the engine
does not start the first time or stalls at any time,
the ignition will have to be switched off and
then on again. The non-repeat lock in the
switch prevents the starter from being oper-
ated when the engine is running and thus from
being damaged.
To remove the key and to lock the steering, turn
the key back to position " 0 " and pull it out. Turn
the steering wheel until it locks.
Gong
If you leave the key in the ignition/steering
lock, the gong will sound when the driver's door
is opened. This is your reminder to remove the
key.
For further details see "Starting Procedures"
on the following page.
WARNING
Never remove key from ignition lock or turn
key off while vehicle is moving. The steering
wheel will lock, causing loss of control.
