CAUTION
• If you attempt to turn the starter key from the
“ACC” to “LOCK” position without pressing
the reset button, the key will turn only to the
position midway between the “ACC” and
“LOCK” positions (marked “•”). Do not force
the key.
When the reset button is pressed while in
this position, the starter key can be turned to
the “LOCK” position and then removed from
the switch. Once the reset button is pressed,
you need not keep it pressed to be able to
turn the key.
• Do not turn the key to the “S” position while
the engine is running since this could dam-
age the starter.
• If is not possible to move the vehicle with
only the starter. If the engine stops while the
vehicle is on the road, turning the starter
switch to the “S” position will have no effect.
Starter switch
WARNING
Never turn the starter switch to any position
other than the “ON” position while driving
the vehicle. Turning the starter switch to the
“ACC” position would be dangerous because
the engine would stop and the following
problems would occur:
• The compressed air used to enhance brak-
ing ceases to be generated. This could sig-
nificantly reduce the effectiveness of the
brakes.
• The power steering system becomes inop-
erative, rendering steering dangerously
sluggish.
• The electrical circuits of the warning
lamps, meters, etc. become inoperative,
causing electric components to malfunc-
tion.
Removing the starter key causes the steering
wheel to lock, making it impossible to steer
the vehicle.
