SENTRY KEY®
The Sentry Key® Immobilizer System prevents unau-

tem. The system does not need to be armed or activated.
Operation is automatic, regardless of whether the vehicle
is locked or unlocked.
The system uses ignition keys which have an embedded
electronic chip (transponder) to prevent unauthorized
vehicle operation. Therefore, only keys that are pro-
grammed to the vehicle can be used to start and operate
the vehicle.
