Ignition Positions With the key in the ignition switch, you can turn the key to four different positions. NOTICE: If your key seems stuck in OFF and you can't turn it, be sure you are using the correct key; if so, is it all the way in? Turn the key only with your hand. Using a tool to force it could break the key or the ignition switch. If none of this works, then your vehicle needs service. B (ACCESSORY): This position lets you turn off the ignition. It also lets you use things like the radio and windshield wipers when the engine is off. In this position your steering wheel will unlock. Use ACCESSORY if you must have your vehicle pushed or towed. C (ON): This position is where the key returns to after you start the vehicle. With the engine off, you can use ON to display some of your warning and indicator lights. D (START): This position starts your engine. Your ignition switch is located on the instrument panel. A (OFF): This position locks your ignition and transaxle. It's a theft-deterrent feature. It's also the only position from which you can remove your key. 2-21
