For safety and security

■Canceling and automatic re-enabling of the intrusion sensor and tilt sensor
●The alarm will still be set even when the intrusion sensor and tilt sensor are canceled.
●After the intrusion sensor and tilt sensor are canceled, pressing the engine switch or
unlocking the doors using the entry function or wireless remote control will re-enable
the intrusion sensor and tilt sensor.
●The intrusion sensor and tilt sensor will automatically be re-enabled when the alarm
system is deactivated.
■Intrusion sensor detection considerations
The sensor may trigger the alarm in the following situations:
●Places with extreme vibrations or noises, or situations in which the vehicle is subject to
repeated impacts or vibrations:
• When parked in a parking garage
• When the vehicle is transported on a ferry, trailer, train, etc.
• When ice adhering to the vehicle is removed
• When the vehicle is in an automatic or high-pressure car wash
• When in a hail or lightning storm
●A window or the moon roof is open.
In this case, the sensor may detect the follow-
ing:
• Wind or the movement of objects such as
leaves and insects inside the vehicle
• Ultrasonic waves emitted from devices
such as the intrusion sensors of other vehi-
cles
• The movement of people outside the vehi-
cle
●Unstable items, such as dangling accessories
or clothes hanging on the coat hooks, are in
the vehicle.
