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
is removed since in the event of any
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
steering is locked, it may be necessary to
rock the steering wheel slightly to facilitate
turning the key. Under no circumstances
should the key be forced since breakage of
the key will occur.
o
Operate the starter until the engine runs.
Turn the ignition key to and hold at the
position until the engine starts.
"Start"
When the engine has started, release the
key.
ENGINE WARM
Operate the starter. If the engine does not
respond on the first attempt, wait several
seconds and try again using the pre-heat.
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.
