Title: steering wheel lock and unlock
Post by: foofam77 on November 27, 2009, 07:27:01 PM
with latio's keyless ignition, are we still able to "steering wheel lock" it?

how to do it?

and of course, how to unlock it?

i know different car brands have different ways.

thanks

To lock steering wheel
1. Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" position.
2. Remove the key, if it is inserted in the ignition switch.
3. Turn the steering wheel 1/6 of a turn clockwise from the straight up position.

To unlock steering wheel
1. Insert the key into the ignition switch, if necessary.
2. Gently turn the ignition switch while rotating the steering wheel slightly right and left.

hey thanks silver...

whenever i switch off my engine, i have always turn it to "ON" position.
So if i want to switch to "LOCK" position, does that mean from "ON" position, i push the ignition switch and turn inwards towards "LOCK"?
OR from "START" position, i can straight away push the lever and turn towards "LOCK"?

you are most welcome - just stating what's in the manual

both options are possible

the (gear) selector lever has to be turned to the "P" (Park) position before you can turn the ignition switch to the LOCK
