STEERING WHEEL LOCK
When  the key  is  removed, the  steering  col-
umn  lock  will  be activated  and  will  engage
when  the   steering  wheel  is   turned  to  the
appropriate  position.  It  is  not  necessary  to
turn the wheel  until locked each  time the key

effective  as  soon  as  the  steering  wheel  is
turned. To unlock  the steering, insert  the key
and turn to the  "ACC" position. If the steering
is  locked,  it  may  be necessary  to  rock  the
steering wheel slightly  to facilitate turning  the

to avoid damaging the starter  motor. If the
engine makes a false start, allow it and the
starter  motor  to  come  to  rest before  at-
