What does LOCK mean on a car?
1 Answers
LOCK refers to the lock position, which is also where the key is inserted and removed. When driving normally, you should learn to choose the correct starting method to prevent damage to your car. The car should be started using a step-by-step ignition process. Here are the specific steps: 1. First, insert the key into the keyhole, turn it from the LOCK position to the ACC position, and pause briefly for about 1 to 2 seconds. Then, turn it from the ACC position to the ON position, at which point the entire car is powered on, the dashboard lights up, and the vehicle performs a self-check. Wait for the fuel pump to build up oil pressure, which takes about 5 to 10 seconds, before turning to the START position to start the car. 2. For cars with a one-button start system, the correct ignition method is also step-by-step. First, press the start button once, wait for 1 to 2 seconds, then press it lightly again, which is equivalent to the ON position. Wait for the fuel pump to fully build up oil pressure and for the dashboard needles to return to their original positions before pressing the start button again to start the vehicle.
