Ignition Positions
With the key in the ignition switch, you can turn the key
to four different positions:
NOTICE:
If your key seems stuck in OFF and you can't
turn it, be sure you are using the correct key;
if so, is it all the way in? 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.
OFF: This position lets
you turn off the engine
and remove the key.
This position also locks
the steering wheel
and transaxle.
