Ignition Positions
With the ignition key in the ignition switch, you can turn
the switch to five different positions.
ACCESSORY (A): This position lets you use your
electrical power accessories such as power windows,
power sunroof (if equipped), radio and the windshield
wipers. To use, push in the ignition key and turn it
toward you. Your steering wheel will remain locked, just
as it was before you inserted the key.
OFF/LOCK (B): This is the only position in which you
can remove the key. This position locks your ignition,
steering wheel and transaxle. It's a theft
-deterrent feature.
OFF/UNLOCK (C): This position lets you turn off the
engine but still turn the steering wheel. It doesn't lock
the steering wheel like OFF/LOCK and it doesn't send
any electrical power to the accessories. The instrument
panel cluster will remain powered in OFF/LOCK to
illuminate the gear shift indicator. The cluster will also
activate the parking brake light when the parking brake
is set. Use OFF/UNLOCK if you must have your vehicle
in motion while the engine is not running.

RUN (D): This is the position the switch returns to after
you start your engine and release the switch. This is the
position for normal driving. Even when the engine is not
running, you can use RUN to operate your electrical
power accessories and to display some instrument panel
warning lights.
START (E): This position starts your engine. When the
engine starts, release the key. The ignition switch will
return to RUN for normal driving.
NOTICE:
If your key seems stuck in LOCK and you can't
turn it, be sure you are using the correct key; if
so, is it all the way in? If it is, then turn the
steering wheel left and right while you turn the
key hard. But turn the key only with your hand.
Using a tool to force it could break the key or the
ignition switch. If none of this works, then your
vehicle needs service.
Key Reminder Warning
If you leave your key in the OFF ignition position, you will
hear a warning chime when you open the driver's door.
Always leave your key in LOCK. If you leave it in any
other position, you will drain your battery power.
Retained Accessory Power
After you turn the ignition off and remove the key, you
will still have electrical power to such accessories as the
power windows, audio steering wheel controls, clock,
sunroof (if equipped) and the radio for up to 10 minutes.
The instrument cluster lights will stay on for a few
seconds, then will go out. Once you open a door, the
power will shut off.

2-57 Dual Sun Visors

and door glass can be shaded at the same time. To use
the dual sun visors, flip the first visor down and turn
toward the window. Then, flip the second visor down
toward the windshield.

Sunroof (Option)
If you have this feature, the switch is located between
the sun visors.
The sunroof switch can be operated in four directions to
control sunroof movement. The switch will only work
when the ignition is on or when the retained accessory
power is active.
The sunroof has both manual and express features for
opening the glass panel and sunshade.
Press and hold the switch rearward to the first position
to open the glass panel and sunshade. The sunshade can
also be opened by hand. To close the glass panel, press
and hold the switch forward. As the glass panel closes, it
will open slightly towards the vent position to provide a
better seal. The sunshade can only be closed by hand.
Press and release the switch rearward to the second
position to express open the glass panel. It will stop in a
partially open position. The glass panel may be fully
opened by pressing the switch rearward again. When the
glass panel is express opening, pressing the switch in
any direction will stop it. Note that if you press and hold
the switch in the express open position for more than
one and a half seconds, the express open operation will
be overridden and the sunroof will operate manually.
