WARNING!

(Continued)

Do not leave children or animals inside parked

vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat build-up may
cause serious injury or death.

CAUTION!

An unlocked car is an invitation to thieves. Always
remove the key from the ignition and lock all the
doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.

Locking Doors With A Key
You can insert the key with either side up. To lock the

door, turn the key to the right. To unlock the door, turn

the key to the left. Refer to “Body Lubrication” in

“Maintaining Your Vehicle” for maintenance procedures.

Key-In-Ignition Reminder
Opening the driver’s door when the key is in the ignition

and the ignition switch position is OFF/LOCK sounds a

signal to remove the key.

STEERING WHEEL LOCK — IF EQUIPPED
Your vehicle may be equipped with a passive steering

wheel lock. This lock prevents steering the vehicle with-

out the ignition key. If the steering wheel is moved

approximately a half turn in either direction, and the key

is not in the ignition, the steering wheel will lock.
To Manually Lock The Steering Wheel
With the engine running, rotate the steering wheel one-

quarter revolution in either direction, turn off the engine

and remove the key. Turn the steering wheel slightly in

either direction until the lock engages.
