The ignition lock is designed so that the ignition switch position cannot be switched to LOCK until the selector lever is moved to the P (Park) position.

When the ignition switch cannot be pushed toward the LOCK position, proceed as follows:

1.Move the selector lever into the P (Park) position.

2.Push the ignition switch to the OFF position. The ignition switch position indicator will not illuminate.

3.Open the door. The ignition switch will change to the LOCK position.

The selector lever can be moved from the P (Park) position if the ignition switch is in the ON position and the brake pedal is depressed.

In order for the steering wheel to be locked, it must be turned about 1/8 of a right or left turn from the straight up position.

To lock the steering wheel, push the ignition switch to the OFF position. To unlock the steering wheel, push the ignition switch. If the steering lock release malfunction indicator appears on the dot matrix liquid crystal display, push the push-button ignition switch again while

lightly turning the steering wheel right and left. (See “DOT MATRIX LIQUID CRYS- TAL DISPLAY” in the “2. Instruments and controls” section.)

If the battery of the vehicle is discharged, the push-button ignition switch cannot be turned from the LOCK position.

Some indicators and warnings for opera- tion are displayed on the dot matrix liquid crystal display between the speedometer and tachometer. (See “DOT MATRIX LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY” in the “2. Instruments and controls” section.)
