Column Lock
Ignition Switch Position
LOCK
The steering wheel is locked to protect against theft.
The ignition key can be removed only in the LOCK
position. For vehicles equipped with an automatic
transaxle, it also locks the gear shift lever in the
P (Park) position.
ACC (Accessory)
Turning the ignition switch to this position unlocks the
steering wheel and will allow some of your vehicle’s
electrical accessories such as the radio to operate when
the engine is OFF.
ON
Turning the ignition switch to this position allows you
to test your vehicle’s warning lights (except the brake
system warning light) to make sure they work before
you start the engine. The ignition key returns to the
ON position once the engine is started and remains in
this position while the engine is running.
Do not leave the ignition switch in the ON position for
extended periods with the engine OFF because the bat-
tery will discharge.
