If you open the driver’s door when the key is in LOCK 0 or ACCESSORY , a warning buzzer will sound to remind you to take the key out.

When this happens, the following messages appear on the driver information interface*:

• In LOCK 0: Remove Key From Ignition.
• In ACCESSORY Turn Ignition Switch To Lock (0) Position. The buzzer will stop when you take the key out.

If the key won’t turn from LOCK 0 to ACCESSORY , turn the key while moving the steering wheel left and right. The steering wheel will unlock, allowing the key to turn.
