Immobilizer System (with
Advanced Key)

to start only with an advanced key the
system recognizes.
If someone attempts to start the engine
with an unrecognized key, the engine will
not start, thereby helping to prevent the
theft of your vehicle.
CAUTION
Changes or modifications not
l
expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could
void the user's authority to operate
the equipment.
To avoid damage to the key, do not:
l
Drop the key.
l
Get the key wet.
l
Expose the key to any kind of
l
magnetic field.
Expose the key to high
l
temperatures on places such as the
dashboard or hood, under direct
sunlight.
