ENGINE IMMOBILIZER
Engine Immobilizer Operation
The Engine Immobilizer system prevents unau-
thorized use of the vehicle by disabling engine
starting.
The system does not need to be enabled or
activated. Operation of the immobilizer is auto-
matic whether the vehicle's doors are locked
or unlocked.
When the ignition is placed in the ACC posi-
tion, the Engine Immobilizer system identifies
the code transmitted by the key. If the code is
recognized as valid, the Engine Immobilizer
system enables engine starting.
When the ignition is brought back to OFF, the
Engine Immobilizer system deactivates the
control unit controlling the engine, disabling
engine starting.
For the correct engine starting procedures,
refer to "Starting The Engine" in "Starting And
Operating."
Irregular Operation
If the key code is not recognized during
starting, the Engine Immobilizer Failure/
Break-in Attempt
icon is displayed on the
instrument panel. Refer to "Warning Lights
And Messages" in "Getting To Know Your
Instrument Panel". This condition leads to the
engine turning off after two seconds. In this
case, cycle the ignition to the OFF position,
and then to ACC; if it is still blocked, try with the
other keys provided. If it is still not possible to
start the engine, contact an authorized dealer.
If the Engine Immobilizer Failure/Break-in
Attempt
icon is displayed while driving, this
means that the system is running a self-diag-
nosis (e.g. due to a voltage drop). If the display
persists, contact an authorized dealer.
NOTE:
Do not tamper with the Engine Immobilizer
system. Any modifications or alterations
could cause the protection function to be
deactivated.
The Engine Immobilizer system is not
compatible with certain aftermarket remote
starting systems. The use of these devices
could cause problems when starting, as well
as the deactivation of the protection func-
tion.
All keys provided with the vehicle have been
programmed in accordance with the elec-
tronics on the vehicle itself.
Each key has its own code which must be
stored by the system's control unit. Contact
an authorized dealer to have new keys (up
to eight) stored with a code.

Unexpected lifting/tilting of the vehicle
