Ignition Positions

With the ignition key in the

ignition, the key can be

turned to four different

positions:

In order to shift out of PARK (P), ignition must be in the

ON/RUN or ACC/ACCESSORY and the regular brake

pedal must be applied.

Notice: Using a tool to force the key from the

ignition switch could cause damage or break the

key. Use the correct key and turn the key only with

your hand. Make sure the key is in all the way. If

none of this works, then your vehicle needs service.

A (LOCK/OFF): This is the only position in which the

ignition key can be inserted or removed. This position

locks the ignition and transmission and steering column.

It is a theft-deterrent feature.

If the steering wheel is locked, move it from right to

left and turn the key to ACC/ACCESSORY. If none

of this works, then your vehicle needs service.

B (ACC/ACCESSORY): This position lets the radio

and windshield wipers operate while the engine is off.

To use ACC/ACCESSORY, turn the key clockwise.

C (ON/RUN): This position is where the key returns

to after the vehicle is started. This position displays

some of the warning and indicator lights.

The battery could be drained if you leave the key in

the ACC/ACCESSORY or ON/RUN position with the

engine off. You may not be able to start your vehicle if the

battery is allowed to drain for an extended period of time.

D (START): This position starts the engine.

A warning chime will sound and the Driver Information

Center (DIC) will display DRIVER DOOR OPEN

when the driver’s door is opened if the ignition is in

LOCK/OFF, ACC/ACCESSORY and the key is in the

ignition. See DIC Warnings and Messages on page 3-73

for more information.
