STEERING WHEEL LOCK — IF EQUIPPED
Your vehicle may be equipped with a passive steering wheel lock. This lock prevents steering the vehicle with- out the ignition key. If the steering wheel is moved approximately a half turn in either direction, and the key is not in the ignition switch, the steering wheel will lock.
To Manually Lock the Steering Wheel
With the engine running, rotate the steering wheel one- half revolution, turn off the engine and remove the key. Turn the steering wheel slightly in either direction until the lock engages.
To Release the Steering Wheel Lock
Insert the key in the ignition switch and start the engine. If the key is difficult to turn, move the wheel slightly to the right or left to disengage the lock.
NOTE: If you turned the wheel to the right to engage the lock, you must turn the wheel slightly to the right to disengage it. If you turned the wheel to the left to engage the lock, turn the wheel slightly to the left to disengage it.
Automatic Transmission Ignition Interlock System
This system prevents the key from being removed unless the shift lever is in PARK. It also prevents shifting out of PARK unless the key is in the ACC, or ON/RUN position, and the brake pedal is pressed.
