Ignition Key

WARNING

To reduce the risk of serious injury or death:

• Never allow children or anyone unfamiliar with the vehicle to touch the ignition switch or related parts. Unexpected and sudden vehicle movement may occur.
• Never reach through the steering wheel to the ignition switch or any other controls while the vehicle is moving. Having your hand or arm in this area may result in loss of vehicle control, leading to a collision.

A: LOCK, B: ACC, C: ON, D: START

Whenever the front door is opened, the ignition switch illumination turns on if the ignition switch is not in the ON position. The light turns off immediately after the ignition key is inserted or about 30 seconds after the door is closed. (For vehicles with ignition switch illumination)

WARNING

• Never turn the ignition key to the LOCK or ACC position while the vehicle is moving, except in an emergency. This may cause the engine to stall and cause loss of power steering and brake assist. This may result in loss of steering and braking function, which may cause a collision.
• Before leaving the driver's seat, always make sure the shift lever is in P (Park), apply the parking brake, turn the ignition key to the LOCK position, and take the key with you to prevent unintended vehicle movement.

NOTICE

Never use secondary keyhole covers. These covers may prevent the vehicle from recognizing the key and keep the vehicle from starting.
