Please note that the instructions outlined in the
Standard Immobilizer Interface section describe an immobilizer
interface that will work with the majority of vehicles; however, some vehicle immobilizer systems may require an
alternate interface due to mounting issues, cosmetic differences, or RF loss when coupling the factory key RF
with the 556U to the factory transponder ring. (See
Alternate Immobilizer Interface.)

coded keys must be used in the installation and installed permanently in the unit. If a new key
is being purchased through the dealer, make sure to code the new key to the factory immobi-
lizer or have the dealer do this. In many vehicles, the new key must be coded at the dealer.

NTT!! It is also the installer's responsibility to notify customers of the following: If they
wish to have additional keys programmed to the vehicle's immobilizer system in the future,
certain vehicle manufacturers require that all programmed keys be reprogrammed at the time
that the keys being added to the system are programmed. In this case, it would be necessary to
remove the already programmed key from the 556U module to reprogram it. (If the customer
plans on having additional keys programmed to the vehicle in the future, the shaft of the key
should not be altered.)
