Ignition Switch
With the ignition key
in
the ignition
switch, you can
turn
the switch to five
positions:
Accessory:
An
“on” position
in
which
you can operate your radio and
windshield wipers. Press
in
the ignition
switch as you
turn
the top of
it
toward
you.
Lock:
The only position
in
which you car
remove the key. This locks your steering
wheel, ignition and transaxle.
52
Off:
Unlocks the steering wheel, ignition,
and transaxle, but does not send electrical
power to any accessories. Use this
position
if
your vehicle must be pushed or
towed, but never try to push-start your
vehicle.
A
warning chime
will
sound
if
you open the driver’s door when the
ignition is off and the key is
in
the
ignition.
Run:
An
“on” position to which the
switch returns after you start your engine
and release the switch. The switch stays
in
the
Run
position when the engine is
running.
But
even when the engine is not
running, you can use
Run
to operate your
electrical power accessories, and to
display some instrument panel warning
lights.
Start:
Starts the engine. When the engine
starts, release the key. The ignition switch
will
return to
Run
for normal driving.
Note that even
if
the engine
is
not
running, the positions Accessory and
Run
are “on” positions that allow you
to
operate your electrical accessories, such
as
the radio.
NOTICE:
If your key seems stuck
in
“Lock”
and you can’t turn it, be sure
it
is 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.
Starting
Your
Engine
Follow the proper steps
to
start
your
vehicle.
Move your shift lever to
“P’
(Park) or
“N”
(Neutral). Your engine won’t start
in
any
other position
--
that’s
