Security System
Immobilizer System
The immobilizer system prevents a key that has not been pre-registered from
starting the engine. Each key contains electronic transmitters that use electronic
signals to verify the key.
Pay attention to the following when inserting the key into the ignition switch * or
pressing the ENGINE START/STOP button * :
• Do not allow objects that emit strong radio waves near the ignition switch
*
or the
ENGINE START/STOP button * .
• Make sure the key is not covered by or touching a metal object.
• Do not bring a key from another vehicle's immobilizer system near the ignition
switch
* or the ENGINE START/STOP button * .
• Do not put the key near magnetic items. Electronic devices, such as televisions
and audio systems emit strong magnetic fields. Note that even a key chain can
become magnetic.
Security System Alarm
The security system alarm activates when the hatch, bonnet or doors are forcibly
opened. The alarm does not activate if the hatch or doors are opened with the
remote transmitter or keyless access system
* .
