Ignition Switch: Description and Operation

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

IGNITION KEY REMINDER TONE ALARM

The ETACS-ECU operates the ignition key reminder tone alarm function under the following conditions:

- Ignition key position: "LOCK" (OFF) position
- Ignition key: Inserted in the ignition key cylinder
- Driver's door: open
However, the light reminder tone alarm will take precedence over this function.

DOOR LOCK PREVENTION FUNCTION

If the key is left in the ignition switch while the driver's door opened or the assistant door opened, all doors are automatically unlocked to prevent locking the ignition key in the vehicle after the door is locked.
