This system prevents the key from being removed unless
the shift lever is in PARK. It also prevents shifting out of
PARK unless the key is in the OFF or RUN positions.

ignition switch and the instrument panel. Turn the igni-
tion key to the LOCK position and remove the key.

Key-In-Ignition Reminder

Opening the driver's door when the key is in the ignition
and is in the OFF, LOCK, or ACC position, sounds a
signal to remind you to remove the key.
