Starting and Operating Instructions
. . . 204
■ IGNITION SWITCH
CAUTION
Do not leave children in the
vehicle with the ignition key.
They could operate the power
windows or other controls and
could even make the vehicle
move. A child or others could
be injured or even killed.
Children can be seriously
injured or killed if caught in the
path of a closing window.
Do not leave children
unattended in the vehicle.
With the key in the ignition switch,
you can turn the switch to four
positions:
1. LOCK: The only position in
which you can remove the
key. This locks your ignition.
- If your vehicle is equipped
with an automatic transmis-
sion, the shift lever must be
in P (Park) to turn the igni-
tion to this position.
Turning to this position also
locks your automatic trans-
mission.
- If your vehicle is equipped
with a manual transmission,
turning to this position locks
the steering wheel.
If the vehicle is parked with the
wheels off center, the steering
can bind.
If this happens, move the
steering wheel from right to
left and turn the ignition to
ACC (accessory). If the steer-
ing wheel movement is still re-
stricted, your vehicle needs
service.
NOTICE
If your key seems stuck, be sure
the key is the correct key and
that it is in all the way. Turn the
key only with your hand. Don't
use a tool to force the key. If this
does not work, then take the
vehicle in for service.
