ACC
(B):
The position in which
you
can
operate your
electrical power accessories. It unlocks the steering
wheel and ignition. Use this position if your vehicle
must
be
pushed or towed.
ON
(C):
The position that the switch returns to after
you
start your engine and release the switch. The switch
stays in the
ON
position when the engine
is
running. But
even when the engine is not running, you can use
ON
to
operate your electrical power accessories and to display
some instrument panel warning and indicator lights.
START
(D):
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
and ventilation fan.
A
warning chime will sound
if
you
open the driver’s
door when the ignition is in
ACC
or
LOCK
and the key
is in the ignition.
I
A
CAUTION:
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.
I
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.
