Ignition Positions (Keyless Access)
You can turn the ignition control knob to four different
positions.
To shift out of PARK (P), ignition must be in the
ON/RUN or ACC/ACCESSORY and the regular brake
pedal must be applied.
Using a tool to force the knob from its cylinder could
cause damage or break the knob.
Make sure the keyless access transmitter is inside the
vehicle when trying to turn the ignition control knob.
A (LOCK/OFF): The ignition control knob cannot be
removed from the vehicle. The keyless access
transmitter must be inside the vehicle to start the
engine. This position locks the ignition and shifter on
automatic transmission vehicles, and the ignition
and steering wheel on manual transmission vehicles.
B (ACC/ACCESSORY): This position allows you to use
things like the radio and the windshield wipers when
the engine is off. This position will allow you to turn off
the engine.
C (ON/RUN): This position is for driving. It is the
position the ignition switch returns to after the engine
starts, and the control knob is released.
If you need to shift the transmission out of PARK (P),
the ignition control knob has to be in ACC/ACCESSORY
or ON/RUN.
The battery could be drained if you leave the key in the
ACC/ACCESSORY or ON/RUN position with the
engine off. You may not be able to start your vehicle if
the battery is allowed to drain for an extended period
of time.
D (START): This position starts the engine.
