ISTAP asks for ignition ON/OFF during programming.

 Suggested fix:

When ISTA/P asks for ignition ON/OFF during programming use the KL15 controls located in the notification area of the taskbar (right click on ISTA/P notification icon). Alternatively use the keyboard Hotkeys.

Default setting is "ON". Obviously actual car ignition will need to be turned ON/OFF also.
