Steering wheel and gear shifting

Lock of ignition and steering column
LOCK (0) Ignition is switched off, the steering wheel is blocked (at the taken-out key), electric devices are not efficient.
ACC (I) The steering wheel is blocked, electric devices are efficient.
ON (II) The steering wheel is unblocked, electric devices are efficient.
START (III) Provision of start

If the ignition key does not turn, move a steering wheel here and there, and at the same time turn a key in the situation "ON (II)".

  • At all do not turn during movement the ignition key in the situation "LOCK (0)" or "ACC (I)".
  • The lock of a steering wheel cannot replace the hand brake. Switch off the engine, establish the lever of an automatic box (if the machine gun) in the situation "R" (parking) is established and tighten the hand brake before leaving the car.
  • Never undertake a key at start through a steering wheel as there is a danger of a trauma if the steering wheel suddenly turns.

Do not leave the ignition key in the situation "ON (II)" at the switched-off engine as the battery is thus discharged.

Illumination of the lock of ignition (if is available)

To facilitate an ignition key insert in the dark, when opening a driver's door illumination of the lock of ignition is lit.

Illumination of the lock of ignition is switched off after a while after door closing.
