Now you may switch ignition on and
start the engine. The fuel injection puls-
es will be enabled.
Important! If the engine can be
started without using the black key
fob, the VTD system has not been
activated. Do not hesitate to request
your dealer to program and activate
the system during the PDI.
The immobilizer will be automatical-
ly armed after ignition switch-off
depending on the following: 1) if the dri-
ver’s door has not been opened or it
has been opened and not closed, the
system will be armed in 5 minutes, 2) if
the driver’s door has been opened and
then closed, the system will be armed
within 30 seconds after the door clos-
ing.
In both cases a beep sound of a ris-
ing pitch will be heard and the LED will
start flashing 15 seconds before the
system is armed.
If you do not wish to arm the system,
switch ignition on.
Immobilizer System Disarming
To disarm the Immobilizer system
activate the Reading Mode, which is
indicated by the key reader LED flash-
ing twice a second, using one of the fol-
lowing procedures:
Open and then close the driver’s
door. This will activate the Reading
Mode for 1.5 minutes.
Cycle ignition ON/OFF. This will acti-
vate the Reading Mode for 10 seconds.
After the Reading Mode has been
activated place a black key fob in front
of the key reader. The LED will go off
and two beep sounds will be heard.
You may now switch ignition on and
start the engine.
Important! Never use a red key
fob to disarm the VTD system, for it
will disable fuel injection pulses.
Take the red key fob home for safe-
keeping. In case the red key fob is
lost after the VTD system has been
activated, the manufacturer dis-
claims warranty obligations related
to improper operation of the VTD
system or the ECM.
Emergencies
1. Black key fob is lost.
If a black key fob has been lost, we
recommend that you reprogram the
remaining black key fob. This will make
the lost key fob invalid. Then buy a new
black key fob and program both black
key fobs that you now have. Apply to
your dealer to perform programming
procedure of the OE and the new key
fob, or of two new key fobs.
2. Red key fob is lost.
If the red key fob is lost, it will be
impossible to program the black key
fobs. This means that you can continue
using the vehicle with remaining black
key fobs. However, should you lose
these key fobs or should the immobiliz-
er module become faulty, it will be nec-
essary to replace both the immobilizer
module and the ECM for the new ones.
In this case use a new red key fob to
activate the immobilizer system (to be
performed at your dealer’s).
3. Replacement of a faulty immo-
bilizer module.
After replacement of a faulty immo-
bilizer module program the system (to
be performed at your dealer’s).
4. Replacement of a faulty ECM.
A faulty ECM may be replaced for a
new one (i.e. not programmed). After
