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 SecuriLocky
electronically coded keys provided
with your vehicle. Each time you
start your vehicle, the
SecuriLockykey is read by the
SecuriLockyanti-theft system. If
the SecuriLockykey identification
code matches the code stored in
the SecuriLockyanti-theft system,
the vehicle's engine is allowed to
start. If the SecuriLockykey
identification code does not match
the code stored in the system or if
a SecuriLockykey is not detected
(vehicle theft situation), the
vehicle's engine will not operate.
Spare SecuriLockykeys can be
purchased from your dealership
and programmed to your
SecuriLockyanti-theft system.
