when  the   steering  wheel  is   turned  to  the
appropriate  position.  It  is  not  necessary  to
turn the wheel  until locked each  time the key

unauthorised attempt at removal,  the lock will
become  effective  as   soon  as  the   steering
wheel is turned. To unlock the steering,  insert
the key  and turn to the  "ACC" position. If  the

NOTE:
Do not operate the starter for more than 15
seconds continuously or continue to oper-
ate the starter after  the engine has started
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-
tempting to  start  the engine  again. Never
attempt   to   start   the   engine    with   the
transaxle  in gear.
