Ignition Positions
With the ignition key in the ignition switch, you can turn
the switch to five positions.
C
A

ACC (A):
Position in which you can operate your
electrical power accessories. Press in the ignition switch
as you turn the top
of
it toward
you.
LOCK

The
only
position in which
you
can
remove
the key. This locks your steering wheel, ignition and
automatic transmission.
If
you have an automatic transmission, the ignition
switch can’t be turned
to
LOCK
unless the shift lever is
in the PARK
(P)
position.
OFF
(C):
Unlocks the steering wheel, ignition and
automatic transmission, but does not send electrical
power to any accessories. Use this position if your
vehicle must be pushed or towed.
A
warning tone will
sound if you open the driver’s door when the ignition
is
in
OFF
and the key is in the ignition.
RUN
(D):
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 and
indicator lights.
