Ignition switch with anti-theft device

The ignition switch lock is located on the right side of the steering column and is operated by a special key. Each car comes with two keys.

It is recommended to keep a label with the key number separately or overwrite the number with the order. to speed up the receipt of a duplicate in case of loss or breakage of the key.
