electronic engine immobilizer system to
reduce the risk of unauthorized vehicle use.
Your immobilizer system is comprised
of a small transponder in the ignition
key and electronic devices inside the vehicle.
With the immobilizer system, whenever
the engine start/stop button is
changed to the ON position, it checks and determines and verifies if the igni‐
tion key is valid or not.
