When the ignition switch cannot be turned to the LOCK position:
1. The SHIFT P warning (if so equipped) appears on the vehicle information display and a chime sounds.

2. Move the selector lever to the P (Park) position.

3. Turn the ignition switch slightly in the ON direction.

4. Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.
