Note: Large metallic objects, electronic devices that are used to
purchase gasoline or similar items, or a second coded key on the same
key chain may cause vehicle starting issues. You need to prevent these
objects from touching the coded IKT while starting the engine. These
objects will not cause damage to the coded IKT, but may cause a
momentary issue if they are too close to the IKT when starting the
engine. If a problem occurs, turn the ignition off, remove all objects on
the key chain away from the coded IKT 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 panel cluster.
• When the ignition is in the off

position, the indicator will flash
once every two seconds to
indicate the SecuriLock™ system
is functioning as a theft
deterrent.

• When the ignition is in the on position, the indicator will glow for

three seconds 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, the vehicle will not start and should be taken to an authorized
dealer for service.

Automatic arming

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

The theft indicator will flash every
two seconds to act as a theft
deterrent when the vehicle is
armed.

Automatic disarming

The vehicle is disarmed immediately after the ignition is turned to the on
position.

The theft indicator will illuminate for three seconds and then go out. If
the theft indicator stays on for an extended period of time or flashes
rapidly, have the system serviced by your authorized dealer.
