Ignition Switch Positions

This is a four position, key operated
switch. The key can be removed from
the switch only when it is in the OFF,
LOCK or P (PARK) position.
To LOCK: Turn the key to the OFF
position, push and fully release the key,
then rotate it to the LOCK position.
To PARK: Turn the key from the LOCK
position to the P position. The steering
remains locked. The front position lights,
rear light and licence plate light will
illuminate.
Note:
• Do not leave the steering lock in the
P position for long periods of time as
this causes the battery to discharge.
