DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Emergency Key Access (EKA)
If the vehicle is in an immobilised condition and the remote handset is not available or inoperable, an EKA
procedure using the vehicle key is available to remobilise the engine systems. The EKA code is supplied with the
vehicle and is shown on the security card supplied with the owners handbook.
NOTE: This feature is only available in markets where full alarm functionality is specified.
The EKA code involves the input of a unique four digit code which is entered using the ignition switch and the
drivers door switch. Note that the alarm sounder will operate as soon as the drivers door is opened and will
continue until the sequence is successfully completed.
To enter the code (2, 3, 4, 5 for example) perform the following steps:
1.Remove the handset from the key ring and position the handset well away from the ignition switch when
entering the code.
2.Open the driver’s door and immediately insert the key in the ignition switch and turn the ignition switch to
position II. Hold this position until the alarm sounds, then switch the ignition off (position 0) and close the
driver’s door.
3.Enter the first digit of the code. Turn the ignition on (to position II) and then off twice. Open and close the
driver’s door to enter the first digit.
4.Enter the second digit. Turn the ignition on and then off, three times. Open and close the driver’s door to
enter the second digit.
5.Enter the third digit. Turn the ignition on and then off, four times. Open and close the driver’s door to enter
the third digit.
6.Enter the fourth digit. Turn the ignition on and then off, five times. Open and close the driver’s door to enter
the fourth digit. If the code has been entered correctly, the alarm LED in the instrument pack will extinguish
and the engine can be started after the last closure of the driver’s door.
If a digit is incorrectly entered, holding the ignition switch in the on position for more than 5 seconds will reset the
sequence. The code must then be re-entered from the beginning.
If the EKA code is correctly entered, the security LED will illuminate for 1 second, the immobilisation will be
disabled and the alarm sounder will cease to operate.
If the EKA code is incorrectly entered, the alarm sounder will sound twice and the correct code must be
re-entered, If the EKA code is incorrectly entered three times the system invokes a 30 minute lockout. This is
signalled by the LED flashing with a long illuminated period followed by a short extinguished period for the lockout
duration.
NOTE: Disabling the alarm and immobilisation system using the EKA procedure is only valid for
one ignition on/off cycle. When the ignition is switched off, the immobilisation system will be
activated after a period of 30 seconds. If the remote handset is still unavailable, the EKA
procedure will have to be repeated each time the vehicle is to be driven.
