Push-button ignition switch positions
LOCK (Normal parking position)
The ignition switch can only be locked in this position. The ignition switch will be unlocked when it is pushed to the ACC position while carrying the Intelligent Key.
ACC (Accessories)
This position activates electrical accessories such as the radio, when the engine is not running.
ON (Normal operating position)
This position turns on the ignition system and electrical accessories.
OFF
The engine can be turned off in the position. The ignition lock is designed so that the ignition switch cannot be switched to the LOCK position until the selector lever is moved to the P (Park) position.
CAUTION
Do not leave the vehicle with the pushbutton
ignition switch in ACC or ON positions
when the engine is not running for an
extended period. This can discharge the
battery.
