Ignition switch
Never turn the ignition switch to
LOCK or ACC whilst the vehicle is
moving. This would result in loss
of directional control and braking
function, which could cause an
accident.
The anti-theft steering column
lock is not a substitute for the
parking brake. Before leaving the
driver's seat, always make sure to
set the parking brake fully and
shut the engine off. Unexpected
and sudden vehicle movement
may occur if these precautions
are not taken.
