IMMOBILIZER OPERATION

The immobilizer system provides an
additional theft deterrent to your
vehicle in which it is installed and
prevents it from being started by
unauthorised persons. The valid key for
a vehicle equipped with immobilizer
system is an ignition key with inte-
grated transponder, which is electroni-
cally coded. The transponder is placed
invisibly in the ignition key.
Only valid ignition keys can be used to
start the engine.
Invalid keys may only open the doors.
