functional except in the case of an
uncharged or low voltage (less than

low voltage, try charging or jump
starting the battery. See Jump
Starting on page 10-85.
If charging or jump starting the
battery does not work, locate the

flat bladed tool or another key from
the key chain into the opening.
When the lever can be felt, actuate
the lever toward the driver, and
remove the key from the ignition.
