Inertia Fuel Shutoff Switch: Description and Operation

FUEL CUTOFF SWITCH
The fuel cutoff switch is a safety device. In the event of a collision or sudden impact, it automatically cuts off the fuel supply and activates the door lock relay. After the switch has been activated, it must be reset in order to restart the engine. To reset this fuel-cutoff feature, press the rubber top of the switch located near the left side of the driver's seat.
