STARTING AND DRIVING 151 THEFT PROTECTION CAUTION! If your vehicle needs to be towed, turn the key to the ؆ACC؆ position to unlock the steering wheel. STARTING Tips for starting 1. Do not operate the starter motor continuously for longer than 15 seconds at a time; doing so could run down the battery. If the engine does not start, turn the ignition switch back to "LOCK", wait a few seconds, and then try again. 2. If the engine will not start because the battery is weak or dead, refer to "Jump-starting the engine" section (page 278) for instructions on starting the engine. 3. The engine is well warmed up if the pointer of the coolant temperature gauge starts to move. Extended warm up operation will result in excessive fuel consumption. CAUTION! Always remove the key from the ignition switch and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unattended. Always try to park your vehicle in a well lighted area. The ignition key can only be removed in the "LOCK" position. If the key is left in the lock cylinder, a warning chime sounds when the driver's door is opened. NOTE: If your vehicle is equipped with a Theft-alarm system, refer to "Theft-alarm system". STEERING LOCK Withdraw the key and the steering wheel will be locked. Turn the steering wheel to confirm that it is locked. 5
