IGNITION SWITCH fig. 7
The key can be turned to 3 different
positions:
❒
STOP: the engine is off, the key can
be extracted, the steering is locked.
Some electrical devices (e.g. car
radio, central door locking system,
etc.) are enabled
❒
MAR: driving position. All electrical
devices are enabled
❒
AVV: engine start.
The ignition device is fitted with a safety
system that forces the driver to return
the ignition key to STOP before
repeating the starting operation, if the
engine does not start up.
Never extract the key
while the vehicle is moving.
The steering wheel would be locked
as soon as the steering wheel is
turned. This also applies to when
the car is towed.
Any operations in the aftermarket,
which would involve tampering with
the steering or the steering column
(e.g. fitting an anti-theft device), are
absolutley prohibited unless they
are carried out and authorized by a
Ford Dealership; in the addition of a
deterioration in the performance of
the system, this would affect the
warranty and cause serious
problems as well as resulting in
invalidating the vehicle’s type
approval.
