Theft Deterrent System
nEngine immobilizer system
The engine immobilizer system prevents the
engine from being started in the event that an
attempt is made to start the vehicle using an
unregistered key.
The security indicator light flashes to indicate that
the system is set.
nAlarm
The system sounds the alarm and flashes lights when an attempt to steal the vehicle is
detected.
To set the alarm: close the doors and hood, and lock all doors. The security indicator light
comes on to indicate that the alarm is in its preparation state. When the indicator light
begins to flash, the system is armed.
To deactivate or stop the alarm: turn the “ENGINE START STOP” switch to ACCESSORY
or IGNITION ON mode, start the engine, or unlock the doors.

The steering wheel locks when the “ENGINE
START STOP” switch is turned off and the driver’s
door is opened.
When the steering lock cannot be released, the

STOP” switch will flash and a message will be
shown on the multi-information display. To release
it, press the “ENGINE START STOP” switch
