This is the normal operating position after

dicator light will blink), and then insert the
key in the ignition switch and turn it to the
“START” position and again try to start the
engine.

ing cases: y
The key grip is touching another key
or a metallic key holder. y The key is near another key that con-
tains an immobilizer transponder. „

“LOCK” or “ACC” positions. The chime
stops when the key is removed from the
ignition switch. „ Ignition switch light

light remains on for a several seconds and
gradually goes out after all doors are
closed or if the key is inserted in the igni-tion switch.

“START” position while the engine
is running.
