Operation
Standard system functions
All vehicles have the following functions as standard.
lLocking.
lUnlocking.
lFuel cut off switch unlocking.
lInternal locking.
lElectric fuel flap release.
Locking
The doors are locked by pressing the lock button on the handset or by locking the vehicle from the driver's door with
the key.
In order to lock the vehicle, the following conditions must be met:
lThe driver's door is closed.
lThe ignition is off.
lThe fuel cut off switch is not tripped.
lThe bonnet is closed.
lThe vehicle is not super locked.
Depending on system configuration a mislock occurs if these conditions are not met. The doors may lock (depending
on condition not met) and the system may not fully arm, depending on configuration of the system. If a mislock occurs
an audible warning is emitted and the vehicle becomes partially armed.
Unlocking
The doors are unlocked by pressing the unlock button on the handset or by unlocking the vehicle from the driver's
door with the key. This may unlock only the driver's door or it may unlock all doors depending on system configuration.
Fuel cut off switch unlocking
In the event that the vehicle experiences a force strong enough to actuate the switch, all the doors on the vehicle
immediately unlock. The following conditions must be met for this to occur:
lThe security system is not armed.
lThe ignition is on.
This same action causes the fuel pump to shut off and disables the Engine Control Module (ECM). In some markets,
this action may also cause the direction indicators lights to flash.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 86-4-21
Emergency key access
If the handset fails to operate, the engine can be remobilised by using the key to enter a unique four digit Emergency
Key Access (EKA) code.
There are three configurations for emergency key access:
lEKA not active (no immobiliser fitted).
lEKA active.
lEKA with super locking on receiving good passive remobilisation exciter coil signal.
The code is recorded on the security information card and is entered as follows:
1Using the key, turn the driver's door lock to the UNLOCK position and hold in this position for at least 5 seconds.
An audible warning is then emitted to indicate that the body control unit is ready to accept the code. Return the
key to the centre position. It is now possible to use the key to enter the separate numerical values of the four
digits that make up the EKA code.
2Enter the first digit of the code. If the first digit is 4, turn the key to the UNLOCK position 4 times. Ensure the
key is fully returned to the centre position after each turn of the key.
3Enter the second digit of the code. If the second digit is 3, turn the key to the LOCK position 3 times. Ensure
the key is fully returned to the centre position after each turn of the key.
4Enter the third digit of the code. If the third digit is 2, turn the key to the UNLOCK position twice. Ensure the key
is fully returned to the centre position after each turn of the key.
5Enter the fourth digit of the code. If the fourth digit is 1, turn the key to the LOCK position once. Ensure the key
is fully returned to the centre position after each turn of the key.
6Finally, turn the key to the UNLOCK position and back to the centre position, a double bleep will indicate that
the code has been entered correctly. A single bleep indicates that the code has been entered incorrectly.
Then, before opening the door, wait 5 minutes for the alarm and immobiliser to be de-activated. During the 5
minute wait for the alarm and immobiliser to be de-activated, the alarm indicator LED in the instrument pack
continues to flash (one flash every 2 seconds). DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR OR ATTEMPT TO ENTER THE
CAR until the full delay period has elapsed.
When the 5 minute wait has elapsed, the alarm indicator LED stops flashing. Immediately open the door, insert
the key in the ignition switch and turn the switch to position II. If the ignition switch is not turned to position II
within 30 seconds of the end of the 5 minute wait, the engine is automatically immobilised again.
The EKA code will not be recognised if there is an interval of 10 seconds or more between key turns or if the key is
held turned for 5 seconds or more during the procedure.
In some system configurations a successful EKA code entry is indicated by the audible warning device pulsing twice
for a period of 50 ms on, 200 ms off. The theft deterrent LED is switched on for 1 second, all doors unlock, the alarm
disarms and the vehicle is remobilised allowing the engine to start.
If an incorrect code is entered, an audible warning is emitted and the procedure must be repeated. Up to a maximum
of 10 attempts to enter the code is possible. After 10 attempts, the BCU will not allow any further codes to be entered
for a period of 10 minutes.
Single point entry
Single point entry (SPE) allows the driver to unlock the driver's door while leaving all other doors locked.
There are two configurations for single point entry:
lSPE not active.
lSPE active.
To use SPE, press the unlock button on the handset once. Depressing the unlock button a second time in the space
of one minute unlocks the remaining doors. SPE is also possible by turning the key in the driver's door lock to the
unlock position once. Turning the key to the unlock position again within one minute unlocks the remaining doors.
In order for SPE to operate, the following conditions must be met:
lThe ignition is off.
lAll doors are locked.
