Anti-theft indicator

The anti-theft indicator is located in the instrument panel cluster.

• When the ignition is in the 1

(LOCK) position, the indicator
will flash once every 2 seconds to
indicate the SecuriLock

௢ system

is functioning as a theft deterrent.

• When the ignition is in the 3 (RUN) position, the indicator will glow

for 3 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 3 (RUN) 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 1
(LOCK) 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 from the
1 (LOCK) to the 3 (RUN) 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.

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.
