If this hap‐pens, the starter will continue to op‐erate causing damage to the startermotor and possible fire due to ex‐cessive current in the wiring.
Immobilizer system
Your vehicle may be equipped with an
electronic engine immobilizer system to
reduce the risk of unauthorized vehicle use.
Your immobilizer system is comprised
of a small transponder in the ignition
key and electronic devices inside the vehicle.
With the immobilizer system, whenever
the engine start/stop button is
changed to the ON position, it checks and determines and verifies if the igni‐
tion key is valid or not.
If the key is determined to be valid, the
engine will start.
If the key is determined to be invalid, the engine will not start.

the OFF position. The immobilizer sys‐ tem activates automatically. Without a
valid ignition key for your vehicle, the
engine will not start.
To deactivate the immobilizersystem:
Change the engine start/stop button to
the ON position.
