DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Passive Immobilisation
Passive immobilisation occurs when the key is removed from the ignition switch and the drivers door is opened,
after a period of 30 seconds the engine will become immobilised. If the ignition is turned off or the key is removed
from the ignition switch and drivers door is not opened, the engine will become immobilised after 5 minutes.
The passive immobilisation system operates in conjunction with the transponder coil located around the ignition
switch barrel. The transponder coil emits an electro magnetic waveform signal which excites the remote handset
into transmitting a remobilisation signal. When remobilisation is requested, the anti-theft alarm ECU transmits an
appropriate code to the ECM on Td5 models or the engine immobilisation ECU on 300Tdi models.
Active immobilisation
Active immobilisation is only invoked when the vehicle is locked using the remote handset. Active immobilisation
performs the same engine disable functionality as the passive immobilisation previously described, but includes
full CDL and activation of perimetric and volumetric alarm modes.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION CDL Using the Key
The driver and the passenger front doors are fitted with key barrel locks. Using the vehicle key in the passenger
door will only lock or unlock that door. Using the key in the drivers door will operate the CDL system and lock or
unlock all doors.
NOTE: The passenger door key barrel is connected to the door latch and has no electrical input to
the anti-theft alarm ECU. The driver door key barrel is also connected to the door latch and its
operation is monitored by the ECU only via the latch motor and the two wires connected to it.
When the vehicle is locked using the key in the drivers door, only CDL and perimetric protection is invoked.
Volumetric protection and active immobilisation is not initiated.
CDL Using the Remote Handset
The remote handset has two buttons; lock and unlock. A single press on the lock button will lock all doors and
invoke perimetric and volumetric protection and active immobilisation. Remote locking is inhibited if the
transponder coil senses that the key is in the ignition switch.
When the vehicle is locked, a single press of the unlock button will unlock all doors and disable perimetric and
volumetric protection. Immobilisation is only disabled using the transponder coil and the remote handset or the
EKA procedure.
Security LED
In addition to the alarm system status indications, the security LED also displays CDL system status.
The system confirms that the drivers door is open by illuminating the LED for the 10 second confirmation period. If
any other door or the bonnet is open, the LED remains unlit for the 10 second confirmation period. After the 10
second confirmation period the LED reverts to the slow flash deterrent mode if the alarm is armed.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION The Heated Front Screen (HFS) is a new feature for 2002MY which is available as part of a cold climate pack on
Td5 engine variants only. The HFS system comprises an HFS ECU, an HFS relay, a controlling switch and the
HFS elements.
The HFS comprises two elements laminated in the windscreen. The elements are connected by bus bars within
the screen and therefore the HFS has only one feed and one earth connector.
The HFS is controlled by the HFS ECU which determines when HFS operation is permitted. The ECU also has a
timer which allows HFS operation for up to 8 minutes. The HFS ECU is located behind the instrument pack,
adjacent to the dim/dip relay. The ECU is connected by a multiplug. The ECU receives an ignition feed via the
satellite fuse box and an engine running signal from the engine oil pressure switch.
A non-latching switch for HFS operation is located in the fascia. The switch has a tell-tale lamp to indicate when
the HFS screen is operative.
The HFS relay is located in the under seat fuse box and receives a permanent battery voltage supply via fusible
link 1 in the under seat fuse box. The relay coil is connected to the HFS ECU and an earth point. When the relay is
operated, battery voltage is supplied from the relay, via fuse 25 in the passenger compartment fuse box to the
HFS element.
When the HFS switch is depressed, a momentary earth path is completed from the HFS ECU, through the switch
to earth. This is sensed by the ECU as a request for HFS operation. If the ECU receives an ignition on signal and
an oil pressure signal, it allows HFS operation. The ECU provides an output to the coil of the HFS relay. When the
coil is energised, the contacts close and battery voltage, via fusible link 1 in the under seat fuse box is supplied to
the HFS element, via fuse 25 in the passenger compartment fuse box. The feed is also supplied via a splice joint
to the HFS switch to illuminate the tell tale lamp in the switch.
The HFS ECU will allow screen operation for up to 8 minutes, after which it removes the feed to the HFS relay
coil, which, after the contacts open, removes the supply to the HFS element and simultaneously extinguishing the
tell tale lamp in the switch. If, during the timed operation period, the HFS ECU receives an additional request
signal from operation of the switch, HFS operation is stopped.
When operating, the HFS element draws approximately 25 Amps. To prevent excess drain on the vehicle battery,
if the ignition on signal and/or the oil pressure switch (engine running) signal is lost, the HFS ECU de-energises, if
already operating, or will not energise the HFS relay.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Heated front seats are a new feature for 2002MY and are available as part of a cold climate pack on Td5 engine
variants only. The heated seats system comprises, two latching switches, a seat relay and heater elements.
The latching switches are located in the fascia. Each switch individually controls its related seat heater elements.
Each switch contains a tell tale lamp to indicate when the seat heaters are active. There is no timer function for the
seat heater operation and the seat heaters will remain active for as long as the switch is latched in and the ignition
is in position II.
The seat heater relay is located in the passenger compartment fuse box and shares its supply and operation with
the front window lift system. The relay receives a permanent battery voltage supply via fusible links 1 and 3 in the
under seat fuse box and fuse 28 in the satellite fuse box. The relay coil is connected to the ignition switch via fuse
7 in the passenger compartment fuse box and an earth point. When the ignition switch is moved to position II, the
relay coil is energised and the contacts close. Power is supplied from the relay to each of the seat heater
switches.
The heater elements are fitted in the seat cushion and squab on the drivers and passenger front seats and are
wired in series. The wiring looms for the elements is long enough to allow the seat squab to be lifted for access to
the under seat fuse box or the storage bin/battery without straining the wiring. The centre seat, if fitted, does not
have heater elements.
The cushion element receives the feed from the switch and contains a thermostatically controlled switch. When
the element temperature reaches 37±3°C (98±3°F) the thermostat cuts the supply to the cushion and squab
elements for that seat. As the temperature of the element falls to 28±3°C (82±3°F), the thermostat will close the
switch contacts allowing power to flow to both elements causing them to heat up again. In this way the thermostat
maintains the cushion and squab element temperatures between the figures stated.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Electric window lift is a new feature for 02MY. The electric windows are only available on the front driver and
passenger doors. Rear passenger doors retain the manual window lift regulator mechanism.
The window lift system comprises a window motor in each front door, two window lift switches located in the fascia
switch panel and a relay, located adjacent to the passenger compartment fusebox. The windows are only
operative when the ignition switch is in position II.
Each window lift motor is located in the door, behind the trim casing. The motor and regulator form a handed
assembly and are not available separately as serviceable items.
The window lift relay receives a permanent battery feed via fusible links 1 and 3 in the under seat fuse box. The
relay coil has one side connected to earth with the other side receiving a feed from the ignition switch position II.
When the ignition is in position II, the relay is energised and battery voltage is supplied to each of the window lift
switches. On vehicles with heated seats, the relay is shared with the heated seat circuit.
Each switch has two wires to its applicable motor. When the switch is operated in either the up or down position,
one wire is supplied with a feed and the other is connected to earth as applicable for the selection made.
Each motor has thermal cut-out protection. If the window reaches the top or bottom limit of its travel or an object
obstructs the window, the thermal cut-out will sense the increased load on the motor and cut the power supply to
the motor brush contacts.
The cut-out time is between 3.5 to 5.0 seconds, with a time to restart of between 1 to 10 seconds. These figures
are based on an ambient temperature of 20°C (68°F) and a voltage of 13.5V.
