PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT
SYSTEM
Principle of Operation
The system prevents someone from
starting the engine with an incorrectly
coded key.

Coded Keys

If you lose a key, you can obtain a
replacement from an authorized dealer. If
possible, provide them with the key
number from the tag provided with the
original keys. You can also obtain extra
keys from an authorized dealer.
Note: Have all of your remaining keys
erased and recoded if you lose a key. Have
replacement keys coded together with
recoding your remaining keys. See an
authorized dealer for further information.
Note: Do not shield your keys with metal
objects. This may prevent the receiver from
recognizing a coded key.

Arming the Engine Immobilizer

After you switch the ignition off the engine
immobilizer will arm automatically after a
short time.

Disarming the Engine Immobilizer

When you switch the ignition on the engine
immobilizer will disarm automatically if a
correctly coded key is used.
If you are unable to start the engine and
the message Key not detected is shown
in the display, the key has not been
recognized. Remove the key and try again.
If you are unable to start the engine with a
correctly coded key, and the message
Immobiliser malfunction Service now
is shown in the display, this indicates a
malfunction. Have your vehicle checked
by an authorized dealer immediately.

ANTI-THEFT ALARM

Alarm System

Your vehicle may have one of the following
alarm systems:
• Perimeter alarm.
• Perimeter alarm with interior sensors.
• Category one alarm with interior
sensors and battery back-up sounder.
Perimeter Alarm
The perimeter alarm is a deterrent against
unauthorized access to your vehicle
through the doors and the hood. It also
protects the audio unit.
Interior Sensors
Do not cover up the interior lamp unit
sensors.
Do not arm the alarm with full guard
if passengers, animals or other
moving objects are inside your
vehicle.
The sensors act as a deterrent against
unauthorized intrusion by sensing any
movement within your vehicle.
