The Keyless Push Button Ignition has four op-
erating positions, three of which are labeled and
will illuminate when in position. The three posi-
tions are OFF, ACC, and ON/RUN. The fourth
position is START. During start, ON/RUN will
illuminate.
NOTE:
If the ignition switch does not change with the
push of a button, the key fob may have a low or
dead battery. In this situation, a back up
method can be used to operate the ignition
switch. Put the nose side (side opposite of the
emergency key) of the key fob against the EN-
GINE START/STOP button and push to operate
the ignition switch.
