Ignition Switch
The fascia-mounted ignition switch,
on the right-hand side of the steering
column, has four key positions:
0.Ignition OFF – This is the only
position in which the key can be
inserted and removed.
I. Auxiliary – Allows use of some
electrical circuits, for example, radio
and window oper ation (accessory
delay only).
II. Ignition ON – All electrical circuits
except the starter motor are
activated. The key remains in this
position when driving. III.
Engine start – The starter motor is
operated for as long as the key is held
in this position, against spring
pressure.
When the key is turned back to the OFF
position, the delayed accessory feature
becomes active.
The circuits available in the auxiliary
position remain activated for a preset
timed period or until a front door is
opened.
To Remove the Ignition Key
Automatic transmissi on vehicles have a
key interlock feature.
Apply the electronic parkbrake, move the
gear selector to the Park ‘P’ position and
turn the key to position ‘0’.
The automatic transmis sion gear selector
must be placed in Park ‘P’ before the key
can be removed from the ignition switch.
When the key is removed, the gear
selector will be locked in Park.
Steering Column Lock
The steering column lock is controlled by
the ignition switch.
When the key is removed from the
ignition switch, you will hear the steering
column lock engage.
When the key is inserted into the ignition
switch, you will hear the steering column
lock disengage.
In rare circumstances, it may be
necessary to gently turn the steering
wheel from side to side to release the
steering column lock.
Gearshift Interlock

Heated Seats
Some seats have heaters in the backrests
and cushions. The heaters have three
heat settings and each seat has its own
control.
The front seat buttons are located at the
top of the centre console.
With the engine running, pressing a
heater button will select the highest heat
setting, as indicated by three illuminated
red lights.
A second press selects the mid setting
(two red lights) and a third press selects
the lowest heat setting (one red light).
A fourth press turns the seat heater off;
all indicator lights off. The rear seat heater buttons are located
below the rear air vents.
Note:
The heater will automatically
switch off if the engine is turned off or if a
fault is detected.
A heater will maintain a preset
temperature while it is switched on.
Storage of the vehicle in a heated garage,
body heat or warm ambient temperatures
may prevent operation of the seat heater.
Heated Steering Wheel
A heater is incorporated in the steering
wheel rim and operates in conjunction
with the driver’s seat heater. The steering
wheel heater is switched on in any of the
three driver seat heater positions.

3 - 10 Before Driving
‘C’ displayed: If ‘C’ is displayed in the compass window,
the compass must be calibrated. Drive the vehicle in a circle at
less than 5 mph (8 km/h) until the display shows a direction.
The compass will be calibrated once it has tracked a complete
circle.
Incorrect direction displayed: The compass responds to
magnetic north but displays direct ions relative to true north.
The difference between magnetic north and true north varies
around the world and is separated into numbered zones as
shown on the map. The correct zone number must be entered
into the compass to show a heading relative to true north.
If the compass displays the wrong direction, it may be because
the wrong zone number has been entered or the vehicle has
moved to a different zone:
1. With the display turned on , press the COMP button for
3 seconds until the zone selection number is displayed on the
mirror compass.
2. If the incorrect zone number is displayed, repeatedly push the COMP button until the correct zone number is displayed.
3. The mirror compass will retu rn to normal compass mode
within 10 seconds of no button activity.
All display segments illuminated: If the vehicle is in the
vicinity of strong magnetic fields, e.g. electricity power lines,
the compass may show an erroneous display with all display
segments illuminated. To correct, drive the vehicle away from
the problem area and reset th e compass by switching the
ignition off and then on.

Trip Computer
The computer memory stores data for a
journey or series of journeys until it is
reset to zero.
The displayed information is for guidance
only, as it can be affected by traffic, road
and weather conditions.
Two independent memories are available
(A and B) to allow two separate journeys
to be recorded concurrently,
for example, work usage and evening/
weekend usage.
Trip distance, average fuel economy and
average speed will be prefixed A or B
depending on the current memory
selected.
Press the TRIP button on the end of the
left column stalk switch repeatedly to
display the data in the following order:
• Odometer.
•Trip distance.
•Range.
• Current fuel consumption.
• Average fuel economy.
• Average speed.
• Messages.
Odometer
The odometer shows the total vehicle
distance travelled since the vehicle was
new.
When the ignition is switched ON
(position ‘II’) the display shows the
odometer reading unless another trip
computer function was previously
selected or a warning message is
displayed, for example, ‘DOOR OPEN’.
The odometer reading is displayed in
either miles or kilometres, depending on
the units selected with the trip computer.
Trip Distance (A/B)
Distance travelled since the last memory
reset. The maximum trip reading is
9999.9 miles (16, 090 kilometres).
The computer, either A or B, will
automatically reset to zero if this distance
is exceeded.
Range
Predicted distance, kilometres or miles,
that the vehicle should travel on the
remaining fuel, assuming average fuel
economy and fuel consumption stay
constant.
