LOCK (B):
This is the only position in which you can
remove the key. This position locks your ignition, steering
wheel and transaxle. It’s a theft-deterrent feature.
OFF
(C):
This position
lets
you turn off the engine but
still turn the steering wheel.
It
doesn’t lock the steering
wheel like
LOCK
and it doesn’t send any electrical
power to the accessories. Use
OFF
if
you must have
your vehicle in motion while the engine is not running.
RUN
(D):
The switch returns to this position after you
start your engine and release the key. This is the position
for normal driving. Even when the engine is not
running, you can use
RUN
to operate your electrical
power accessories and to display some instrument panel
warning lights.
START
(E):
This position starts your engine. When the
engine starts, release the key and the switch will move
to the
RUN
position.
NOTICE:
If
your key seems stuck in
LOCK
and you can’t
turn it, be sure you are using the correct key; if
so,
is it
all
the way in?
If
it is, then turn the
steering wheel left and right while you turn the
key hard. But turn the key only with your hand.
Using
a
tool to force it could break the key
or
the
ignition switch.
If
none
of
this works, then your
vehicle needs service.
Key Reminder Warning
If you leave your key
in
the ignition, in the
OFF
position,
you will hear a warning chme when you open the
driver’s door.
