IGNITION SWITCH fig. 9
The key can be turned to 3 different po-
sitions:
❒ STOP: engine off, key can be removed,
steering column locked. Certain elec-
trical devices (e.g. sound system, cen-
tral door locking, etc.) can work
❒ MAR: driving position. All electrical de-
vices are powered
❒ AVV: engine starting.
The ignition switch is fitted with a safety
mechanism that, in the event the engine is
not started, turns back the ignition key to
STOP before repeating the starting oper-
ation.

sonal identity document and the car’s
ownership documents.
