Theft Deterrent System
■Engine immobilizer system
The engine immobilizer system prevents the
engine from being started in the event that an

unregistered key.
The security indicator light flashes to indicate that
the system is set.

The system sounds the alarm and flashes lights when forcible entry is detected.
To set the alarm: lock all the doors from outside the vehicle. The security indicator light

less remote control.
