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 6.38 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 cylinder.
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.

(3) Check if the pressure decreases when the fuel tank
cap is removed while adding pressure.
HINT:
If the pressure does not decrease when the filler cap is re-
moved, then you can conclude that the hose connecting the
service port to the fuel tank is blocked, etc.
(k) Disconnect the pressure gauge from the EVAP service
port on the purge line.
5. CHECK AIRTIGHTNESS IN FUEL TANK AND FILLER
PIPE
(a) Disconnect the EVAP line hose from the charcoal canister
side and then pressurize and make the internal pressure
in the fuel tank 4 kPa (41 gf/cm
2, 0.58 psi).
(b) Check that the internal pressure of the fuel tank can be
hold for 1 minute.
(c) Check the connected portions of each hose and pipe.
(d) Check the installed parts on the fuel tank.
If there is no abnormality, replace the fuel tank and filler pipe.
(e) Reconnect the EVAP line hose to the charcoal canister.
6. INSPECT FUEL CUTOFF VALVE AND FILL CHECK
VA LV E
(a) Disconnect the purge line hose and EVAP line hose from
the charcoal canister.
(b) Plug the cap to the air drain hose.
(c) Pressurize 4 kPa (41 gf/cm
2, 0.58 psi) to the purge port
and check that there is ventilation through the EVAP line
hose.
HINT:
In the condition that the fuel fuel is full, as the float value of the
fill check valve is closed and has no ventilation, it is necessary
to check the fuel amount (volume).
(d) Check if there is any struck in the vent line hose and EVAP
line hose.
If there is no stuck in hoses, replace the fuel cutoff valve and fill
check valve.
(e) Reconnect the purge line hose and EVAP line hose to the
charcoal canister.
