SecuriLockYanti-theft system
The SecuriLockyanti-theft system provides an advanced level of vehicle
theft protection. Your vehicle's engine can only be started with the two
special SecuriLockyelectronically coded keys provided with your

situation), the vehicle's engine will not operate.
Spare SecuriLockykeys can be purchased from your dealership and
programmed to your SecuriLockyanti-theft system. Refer to
