START

Turn the ignition key to the START
position to start the engine. The engine
will crank until you release the key, then
it returns to the ON position. Also, the
brake warning indicator illuminates to
check the bulb in this position.
Difficulty in turning the ignition key to
the START position can be caused by
pressure on the switch from the steering
column. To allow the ignition key to turn,
move the steering wheel right or left to

release the tension and then turn the key.

AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE

When turning the ignition switch to the
LOCK position, the shift lever must be
in the P (Park) position.

MANUAL TRANSAXLE

When turning the ignition switch to the
LOCK position, push the key inward at
the ACC position and turn the key
toward the LOCK position.

NOTICE

For safety, the engine will not start

through the steering wheel
while the vehicle is in motion.
Failure to observe this
warning can result in loss of
vehicle steering and braking
control, which may result in
an accident.
