Immobilizer Operation

The vehicle has a passive
theft-deterrent system.
The system is automatically armed
when the ignition is turned off.
The immobilization system is
disarmed when the ignition is turned
to OFF/ACCESSORY or START and
a valid transmitter is found in the
vehicle.
You do not have to manually arm or
disarm the system.
The security light comes on if there
is a problem with arming or
disarming the theft-deterrent
system.
Keys, Doors, and Windows
The system has one or more RKE
transmitters that are matched to an
immobilizer control unit in the
vehicle. Only a correctly matched
RKE transmitter starts the vehicle.
The vehicle may not start if the RKE
transmitter is damaged.
If the engine does not start and the
security light comes on, there may
be a problem with the immobilizer
system. Press the START button
again.
If the vehicle does not start and
the RKE transmitter appears to
be undamaged, try another
RKE transmitter. Or, place the
transmitter in the transmitter pocket.
