On manual transmission vehicles, turning the
key to LOCK will lock the steering column and
result in a
loss
of
ability to steer the vehicle.
This could cause a collision. If you need to
turn
the
engine
off
while the vehicle
is
moving,
turn the key only to ACC. Don’t push the key
in while the vehicle
is
moving.
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. 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.
ACC (ACCESSORY)
(B):
This
is
the position in which
you can operate your electrical accessories or items
plugged into the accessory power outlets.
It
also unlocks
the steering wheel and ignition. Use this position
if
your vehicle must be pushed or towed.
ON
(C): This is the position that the switch returns
to
after you start your engine and release the switch.
The switch stays in
ON
when the engine is running. But
even when the engine is not running, you can use
ON
to
operate your electrical accessories and
to
display
some instrument panel cluster warning and indicator
lights.
START (D): This
is
the position that starts the engine.
When the engine starts, release the key. The ignition
switch will return
to
ON
for normal driving.
When the engine is not running, ACC and
ON
allow you
to
operate your electrical accessories, such as the
radio or items plugged into the accessory power outlets.
A warning tone will sound
if
you open the driver’s
door when the ignition
is
in ACC
or
LOCK and the key
is in the ignition.
