Steering Column
Lock/Ignition Switch
The ignition switch, on the right
side of the steering column, has
five positions:
LOCK
— The normal parking
position. This locks the steering
and prevents normal use of the
steering wheel.
The key can be removed only
when the ignition is in this
position. On automatic
transmission models, the ignition
switch cannot be turned to the
“
LOCK” position unless the shift
lever has first been placed in the
“P” position. The shift lever is
then locked.
ACC (Accessory)—In this
position, you can use some
electrical accessories when the
engine is not running.
ON—The normal driving
position.
START—This position starts the
engine. The switch returns to
ON
when you release the key.

179Driving Tips
Follow the recommendations in
this manual and ask your Honda
dealer for further details before
you tow a trailer with your
Passport.
Towing a trailer affects vehicle
maintenance requirements due
to the additional load. More
frequent maintenance intervals
will be required to assure
continued satisfaction with
your vehicle. Consult your
Honda dealer for recommended
maintenance and service.
The gross trailer weight (trailer
weight plus cargo load) must
never exceed 4,500 lb.
Additional equipment will be
required, depending on the
specific model/load combination.
See “Trailer Hitches” in this
section.
Exceeding the weight limit will
cause damage to your vehicle and
possibly result in personal injury.
•The Gross Vehicle Weight
Rating (
GVWR) is the
combined weight of the
unloaded vehicle, passengers,
cargo, trailer hitch, trailer
tongue load, and optional
equipment. This value is
indicated on the

vehicle (including passengers
and cargo) plus the total trailer
load. The following limits
