See Radio Frequency Statement 0366.
Immobilizer Operation
This vehicle has a passive
theft-deterrent system.
The system does not have to be
manually armed or disarmed.
The vehicle is automatically
immobilized when the vehicle is
turned off.
The immobilization system is
disarmed when the ignition is on and
a valid transmitter is found in the
vehicle.
The security light in the instrument
cluster comes on if there is a problem
with arming or disarming the
theft-deterrent system.
The system has one or more
transmitters matched to an
immobilizer control unit in the
vehicle. Only a correctly matched transmitter will start the vehicle.
If the transmitter is ever damaged,
you may not be able to start the
vehicle.
If the engine does not start and the
security light stays on, there is a
problem with the system. Turn the
vehicle off and try again.
If the RKE transmitter appears to be
undamaged, try another transmitter or
place the transmitter in the
transmitter pocket/insert next to the
center console storage area between
the driver and front passenger seats.
