Positions of the ignition

1. Off — locks the steering wheel,

automatic transmission gearshift

lever and allows key removal. This

position also shuts the engine and

all electrical accessories off.

2. Accessory—allows the electrical

accessories such as the radio to

operate while the engine is not

running.

3. On— all electrical circuits operational. Warning lights illuminated. Key

position when driving.

4. 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, don’t press 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.

WARNING: 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.

WARNING: Do not park, idle, or drive your vehicle in dry grass

or other dry ground cover. The emission system heats up the

engine compartment and exhaust system, which can start a fire.

WARNING: Do not start your vehicle in a closed garage or in

other enclosed areas. Exhaust fumes can be toxic. Always open

the garage door before you start the engine. See Guarding against

exhaust fumes in this chapter for more instructions.
