< BASIC INSPECTION >[WITH INTELLIGENT KEY SYSTEM]
PRE-INSPECTION FOR DIAGNOSTIC
2.CHECK SECURITY INDICATOR LAMP
1. Lock doors using Intelligent Key or mechanical key.
2. Check that security indicator lamp illuminates for 30 seconds.
Does the security indicator lamp illuminate?.
YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> Perform diagnosis and repair. Refer to SEC-58, "
ComponentFunctionCheck".
3.CHECK ALARM FUNCTION
1. After 30 seconds, security indicator lamp will start to blink.
2. Open any door or hood before unlocking with Intelligent Key or mechanical key, or open back door or glass hatch without the presence of Intelligent Key.
Does the alarm function properly?
YES >> GO TO 4.
NO >> Check the following. • The vehicle security system does not phase in alarm mode. Refer to SEC-116, "
Symptom
Table".
• Alarm (horn and headlamps) does not operate. Refer to SEC-116, "
Symptom Table".
4.CHECK ALARM CANCEL OPERATION
Unlock any door using Intelligent Key or mechanical key.
Does the alarm (horn and headlamps) stop?
YES >> Inspection End.

• Intelligent Key has 2 IDs (for Intelligent Key and for NATS). It can perform the door lock/unlock operation and
the engine start operation when the registered Intelligent Key is carried.
• When the Intelligent Key battery is discharged, it can be used as emergency back-up by inserting the
mechanical key set in the Intelligent Key to the ignition key cylinder. At that time, perform the NATS ID verifi-
cation. If it is used when the Intelligent Key is carried, perform the Intelligent Key ID verification.
• If the ID is successfully verified, and when the igniti on knob switch is pressed, steering lock will be released
and initiating the engine will be possible.
• The door lock/unlock operation can be performed when t he Intelligent Key battery is discharged, by operat-
ing the driver door key cylinder using the mechanical key set in the Intelligent Key.
• Up to 4 Intelligent Keys can be registered (including the standard Intelligent Key) on request from the owner.
NOTE:
• Refer to DLK-21, "
INTELLIGENT KEY : S ystem Description" for any functions other than engine start func-
tion of Intelligent Key system.
PRECAUTIONS FOR INTELLIGENT KEY SYSTEM
• For vehicles equipped with the In telligent Key system, the transponder [the chip for NATS ID verifi-
cation] is integrated into the Inte lligent Key. Therefore, the Intelligent Key alone is capable of provid-
ing security clearance for the engine to start. Al so, when the mechanical key alone is inserted into
the key cylinder, performs the NATS ID verification to allow the engine to start. For vehicles without
Intelligent Key system, the transponder is integrated into the mechanical key which must be inserted
into the key cylinder to perform the NATS ID verification to allow the engine to start.
OPERATION WHEN INTELLIGENT KEY IS CARRIED
1. When the ignition knob switch is ON, the Intelligent Key unit transmits the request signal to the Intelligent
Key.
2. The Intelligent Key receives the request signal and transmits the Intelligent Key ID signal to the Intelligent Key unit.
3. The Intelligent Key unit receives the Intelligent Ke y ID signal and verifies it with the registered ID.
4. Intelligent Key unit transmits the steering lock/unlock signal to steering lock solenoid if the verification
results are OK. For detail of key warning message operation, refer to DLK-38, "
System Description".
5. Release of the steering lock.
6. BCM transmits the starter request signal via CAN communication to IPDM E/R and turns the starter relay in IPDM E/R ON if BCM judges that the engine start condition is satisfied.
7. IPDM E/R turns the starter control relay ON when receiving the starter request signal.
8. When shift position is in P or N position, battery power is supplied through the starter relay and operate the starter motor and to start the cranking.
CAUTION:
If a malfunction is detected in the Intelligen t Key system, the “KEY” warning message will be dis-
played in the combination meter. At th at time, the engine cannot be started.
OPERATION RANGE
Engine can be started when Intelligent Key is inside the vehicle. However, sometimes engine might not start
when Intelligent Key is on instrument panel or in glove box.
OPERATION WHEN MECHANICAL KEY IS USED
When the Intelligent Key battery is discharged, performs the NATS ID verification between the integrated tran-
sponder and BCM by inserting the mechanical key into the key cylinder, and then the engine can be started.
For details relating to starting the engine using mechanical key, refer to SEC-14, "
System Description".
STEERING LOCK OPERATION
Steering is locked by steering lock solenoid when ignition switch is in the LOCK position (the ignition knob is
released) and key switch is OFF (key is removed from ignition key cylinder).

VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM
VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM
System DiagramINFOID:0000000005147075
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000005147076
DESCRIPTION
The security system provides an audible and visual
alarm when an unauthorized access to the vehicle is
detected while the system is in armed phase.
The security system consist of the BCM managing the audible alarm (horn) and the visual alarm (headlamps).
OPERATION FLOW
Disarmed Phase
When the vehicle is being driven or when doors are open, the theft warning system is set in the disarmed
phase on the assumption that the owner is inside or near the vehicle.
Pre-Armed Phase And Armed Phase
The vehicle security system turns in to the pre-armed phase when ignition s witch is in OFF position, all doors
are closed and locked (using Intelligent Key, door reques t switch or auto relock function). The system auto-
matically shifts into the armed phase.
Condition of Activating The System
When the following condition is performed in armed phase, the system sounds the horns and flashes the
headlamps for about 45 seconds.
• Any door is opened.
