Ignition Positions (Keyless Access)
You can turn the ignition control knob to four different
positions.
To shift out of P (Park), ignition must be in the ON/RUN
or ACC/ACCESSORY and the regular brake pedal must
be applied.
Using a tool to force the ignition control knob from its
cylinder could damage it.
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 P (Park), 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.
