engine. If a problem occurs, turn the ignition off, remove all objects on
the key chain away from the coded key and restart the engine.

Note: Do not leave a duplicate coded key in the vehicle. Always
take your keys and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle.

Anti-theft indicator

The anti-theft indicator is located in the instrument cluster.
• When the ignition is off, the

indicator will flash once every two
seconds to indicate the
SecuriLock

௡ system is functioning

as a theft deterrent.

• When the ignition is on, the indicator will glow for three seconds, then

turn off, to indicate normal system functionality.

If a problem occurs with the SecuriLock

௡ system, the indicator will flash

rapidly or glow steadily when the ignition is in the on position. If this
occurs, turn the ignition off then back on to make sure there was no
electronic interference with the programmed key. If the vehicle doesn’t
start, try to start it with the 2nd programmed key and if successful
contact your authorized dealership for key replacement. If the indicator
still flashes rapidly or glows steadily, and the vehicle will not start,
contact your authorized dealer as soon as possible for service.

Automatic arming

The vehicle is armed immediately after switching the ignition to the off
position.

Automatic disarming

Switching the ignition to the on position with a coded key disarms the
vehicle.

Replacement keys

If your keys are lost or stolen and you don’t have an extra coded key,
you will need to have your vehicle towed to an authorized dealer. The
key codes need to be erased from your vehicle and new coded keys will
need to be programmed.

Replacing coded keys can be very costly. Store an extra programmed key
away from the vehicle in a safe place to help prevent any
inconveniences. Please visit an authorized dealer to purchase additional
spare or replacement keys.
