STARTING

Positions of the ignition

1. ACCESSORY, allows the electrical

accessories such as the radio to

operate while the engine is not

running.

2. LOCK, locks the steering wheel,

automatic transmission gearshift

lever and allows key removal.

3. OFF, shuts off the engine and all

accessories without locking the

steering wheel. This position also allows the automatic transmission shift

lever to be moved from the P (Park) position without the brake pedal

being depressed.

In the OFF position, the automatic transmission shift lever can

be moved from the P (Park) position without the brake pedal

depressed. To avoid unwanted movement, always set the parking

brake.

4. ON, all electrical circuits operational. Warning lights illuminated. Key

position when driving.

5. START, cranks the engine. Release the key as soon as the engine

starts.

Preparing to start your vehicle

Engine starting is controlled by the powertrain control system. This

system meets all Canadian Interference-Causing Equipment standard

requirements regulating the impulse electrical field strength of radio

noise.

When starting a fuel-injected engine, avoid pressing the accelerator

before or during starting. Only use the accelerator when you have

difficulty starting the engine. For more information on starting the

vehicle, refer to Starting the engine in this chapter.

Extended idling at high engine speeds can produce very high

temperatures in the engine and exhaust system, creating the risk

of fire or other damage.
