sitions:
– STOP: engine switched off, key can be
removed, engine inhibitor engaged, steer-
ing lock engaged, services excluded apart
from those supplied directly (e.g. hazard
warning lights).

IMPORTANT If the engine fails to start
move the key back to STOP and repeat.
The ignition switch has a safety device
which prevents passage to AVV when the
engine is running.
– PARK: engine switched off, key can
be removed, engine lock engaged, steer-
ing lock engaged, sidelights switched on au-
tomatically.
IMPORTANT To turn the key to the
PARK position, button (A) on the switch
must be pressed first.
