Steering wheel lock

Twin Clutch SST
5
NOTE
 For vehicles with a Twin Clutch SST, the key
cannot be removed unless the gearshift lever
is set to the "P" (PARK) position, which
allows the ignition switch to turn to the
"LOCK" position.
CAUTION
 Do not remove the ignition key from the
ignition switch while driving. The steering
wheel will lock, causing loss of control.
 If the engine is turned off while driving, the
power brake booster will stop functioning
and braking efficiency will be reduced. Also,
the power steering system will not function
and it will require greater effort to manually
steer the vehicle.
 Do not leave the key in the "ON" position for
a long time when the engine is not running.
This will cause the battery to run down.
