The ignition switch has three
positions: LOCK (0), ACCESSORY
(I), and ON (II).
LOCK (0) You can insert or
remove the key only in this position.
To turn the key, you must push the
key in slightly. If the front wheels
are turned, the anti-theft lock may
make it difficult to turn the key.
Firmly turn the steering wheel to the
left or right as you turn the key.
ACCESSORY (I) You can
operate the audio system and the
accessory power socket in this
position.
ON (II) This is the normal key
position when driving. Several of the
indicators on the instrument panel
come on as a test when you turn the
ignition switch from ACCESSORY
(I) to ON (II).
The engine can be started with the
key in this position by pressing the
engine START button (see page

You will hear a reminder beeper if
you leave the key in the ignition
switch in the LOCK (0) or
ACCESSORY (I) position and open
the driver's door. Remove the key to
turn off the beeper.
