Electronic engine immobiliser
The key contains an electronic chip which has a special code. When the ignition is switched on, this code must be recognised in order for starting to be possible. This electronic engine immobiliser locks the engine management system a few minutes after the ignition is switched off and prevents starting of the engine by anyone who does not have the key.
Anti-theft protection
In the event of a fault, you are informed by illumination of this warning lamp, an audible signal and a message in the screen.
