Manual transaxle vehicle
You must push in the ignition switch to
turn it from the “LOCK” position to the
“ACC” position. To return to the
“LOCK” position from the “ACC” posi-
tion, turn the ignition switch counter-
clockwise while pushing in the switch.
Automatic transaxle vehicle
To turn the ignition switch, push the
switch.
If the keyless start system blue indicator
light illuminates on the instrument cluster,
you can turn the ignition switch. If the red
indicator light illuminates, you cannot turn
the ignition switch.
NOTE
❒ The ignition switch can be turned to the
“ACC” position when the keyless start
system blue indicator light illuminates.
The blue indicator light will illuminate
for several seconds when you push in
the ignition switch and then will turn off
to protect the system. In this case, you
must release the ignition switch and
push it again to illuminate the blue in-
dicator light.
❒ If the keyless start system red indicator
light illuminates, the remote controller
may not be in the vehicle or the battery
of the remote controller may be unre-
liable.
NOTE
❒ If the battery of the remote controller
runs down or there are strong radio
waves or noise, the operating range
may be narrower or the remote con-
troller may be inoperative.
❒ If the remote controller is too close to
the door glass, it may not operate.
❒ The ignition switch may not turn when
the remote controller is on the instru-
ment panel, in the glove box, in a stor-
age compartment, in the sun visor or
on the floor.
IMPORTANT The remote controller is
a sensitive electronic instrument. To avoid
damaging it, do not expose it to impacts,
moisture or high temperature (such as on
the dashboard under direct sunlight).
If you leave any of the doors open with the
ignition switch in the “ACC” position for
a while (and no key inserted), the engine
may not start when you turn the ignition
switch to “START”. If the engine does not
start, close all doors completely or turn
the ignition switch back to the “LOCK”
position, then start the engine.
You can also turn the ignition switch by
inserting the ignition key into the slot. Re-
fer to “Ignition Switch” in the “STEERING
COLUMN CONTROLS” section.
