PRE±CHECK
1. THEFT DETERRENT SYSTEM
When the system is set to the theft deterrent mode and any of
the following conditions are met, the system sounds the horns
and flashes the headlights and the taillights for approx. 1 min-
ute.
At the same time the system locks all doors (If all door are not
locked at once, the system repeats door locking operation ev-
ery 0.55 seconds during the one minute alarm time).
There are 2 modes in this system, which are active mode and
passive mode.
All initial setting are performed in active mode. It can be
switched to passive mode by specified operation. (See step 4.
CHANGING METHOD OF PASSIVE MODE)
Condition:
Any of the doors (Including the engine hood and luggage
compartment door) is unlocked or opened without the
key. *1
The battery terminal is disconnected and reconnected.
The system receives panic signal from remote keyless
entry. *2
*1: Only active arming mode.
*2: When the ignition key is not inserted in the key cylin-
der.
There are 4 conditions in this system which are disarming
condition, disarming preparation condition, arming condition
and alarming condition.
(a) Disarming condition:
(1) When a user is near the vehicle.
(2) When the alarming function does not operate.
(3) When theft deterrent function is not performed.
(b) Disarming preparation condition:
(1) Time from a user locks a door to be leaves the ve-
hicle.
(2) Time until transferring to disarming condition.
(3) Theft deterrent function is not performed.
(c) Arming condition:
(1) When a user leaves the vehicle completely.
(2) When theft deterrent function is possible.

(d) Alarming condition:
Is this condition, once theft is detected, it is informed us-
ing light and sound to people around the vehicle.
