on.
This is the normal driving position.

wheel is locked. The key can be re-
moved only at this position.

from "ACC" to the "LOCK" position. On
vehicles with an automatic transmission,
the selector lever must be put in the "P"

immobilizer
tem—Once you remove the key, the en-
gine immobilizer system is automatically
set. (See "Engine immobilizer system" on
page 10.)
When starting the engine, the key may
seem stuck at the "LOCK" position. To
free it, first be sure the key is pushed all
the way in, and then rock the steering
wheel slightly while turning the key gently.
It is not a malfunction if the needles on
all meters and gauges move slightly when
the key is turned to the "ACC", "ON" or
"START" position.
CAUTION
Never remove the key when the ve-
hicle is moving, as this will lock the
steering wheel and result in loss of
steering control.
NOTICE
sys-
Do not leave the key in the "ON"
position if the engine is not running.
The battery will discharge and the
electronic ignition system could be
damaged.
