ENGINE
IMMOBILIZER
Engine Immobilizer
Operation
The Engine Immobilizer system
prevents unauthorized use of the
vehicle by disabling engine starting.
The system does not need to be
enabled or activated. Operation of the
immobilizer is automatic whether the
vehicle's doors are locked or unlocked.
When the ignition is set to ON, the
Engine Immobilizer system identifies the
code transmitted by the key. If the code
is recognized as valid, the Engine
Immobilizer system enables engine
starting.
When the ignition is brought back to
STOP, the Engine Immobilizer system
deactivates the control unit controlling
the engine, disabling engine starting.
For the correct engine starting
procedures, refer to “Starting The
Engine” in “Starting And Operating.”
Irregular Operation
If the key code is not correctly
recognized during starting, the Engine
Immobilizer Failure/Break-in Attempt
icon is displayed on the instrument
panel (refer to "Warning Lights And
Messages" in "Getting To Know Your
Instrument Panel"). This condition leads
to the engine turning off after two
seconds. In this case, switch the
ignition to STOP and then to ON; if it is

detected, the system emits a further
acoustic signal.
If a second acoustic signal is emitted
after the alarm is already armed, wait
about four seconds and disarm the
alarm by pushing the unlock button.
Verify that the doors, hood, and trunk
lid are closed correctly and then rearm
the system by pushing the lock button
on the key fob.
If the alarm emits an acoustic signal
even when the doors, hood, and trunk
lid are correctly closed, a fault has
occurred in system operation. In this
case, contact an authorized dealer.
To Disarm The Alarm
Push the unlock button to disarm the
alarm. While disarming, the following
operations are performed:
Two brief flashes of the turn signals
(if programmed)
Two brief acoustic signals
(if programmed)
Doors are unlocked
The alarm can also be disarmed using
the Passive Entry System, by grasping
one of the Passive Entry front door
handles with a valid key fob in hand to
unlock. For further information refer to
"Passive Entry" in "Doors.” Note:
The alarm does not disarm when the
doors are unlocked by inserting the
blade of the emergency key, found
inside the key fob, into the door handle
lock cylinder.

Volumetric/Anti-Lift Protection button
before activating the alarm.
When the function is disabled, this is
indicated by the light on the
Volumetric/Anti-Lift Protection button
flashing for several seconds.Any disabling of the Volumetric/Anti-Lift
Protection must be repeated each time
the instrument panel is switched off.
To Disarm The Alarm
Using Passive Entry

during a long period of vehicle
inactivity), insert the blade of the
emergency key, found inside the key
fob, into the door handle lock cylinder
