See Radio Frequency Statement
0 317.
Immobilizer Operation
This vehicle has a passive
theft-deterrent system.

security light stays on, there is a
problem with the system. Turn the
vehicle off and try again.
If the RKE transmitter appears to be
undamaged, try another transmitter.

transmitter in the transmitter pocket
in the center console. See
“Starting
the Vehicle with a Low Transmitter
Battery or Wireless Interference”
