Ignition switch
IGNITION NODE MODULE (IGNM)
The Ignition Node Module (IGNM) operates similar to an ignition switch. It has four operating positions, three with detents and one that is spring-loaded. The detent positions are OFF, ACC, and ON/RUN. The START position is a spring-loaded momentary contact position. When released from the START position, the switch automatically returns to the ON/RUN position.

⚠ WARNING!
● Before exiting a vehicle, always come to a complete stop, then shift the automatic transmission into PARK, apply the parking brake, place the engine in the OFF position, remove the key fob from the vehicle and lock your vehicle. If equipped with Keyless Enter ‘n Go™, always make sure the keyless ignition is in OFF position, remove the key fob from the vehicle and lock the vehicle.
● Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle.
● Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or others could be seriously or fatally injured.
Children should be warned not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the gear selector.
● Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or in a location accessible to children, and do not leave the ignition of a vehicle equipped with Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ in the ON/RUN position. A child could operate power windows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
● Do not leave children or animals inside parked vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat buildup may cause serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
An unlocked vehicle is an invitation for thieves.
Always remove key fob from the vehicle and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.
NOTE:
● For more information on normal starting, see ⇒ Starting the engine

KEYLESS ENTER ‘N GO™ IGNITION (IF EQUIPPED)
This feature allows the driver to operate the ignition switch with the push of a button as long as the key fob is in the passenger compartment.
The START/STOP ignition button has several operating modes that are labeled and will illuminate when in position. These modes are OFF, ACC, ON/RUN, and START.
