PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM
The SecuriLock
passive anti-theft system provides an advanced level of
vehicle theft protection. Your vehicle’s engine can only be started with
the two special SecuriLock
electronically coded keys provided with
your vehicle. Each time you start your vehicle, the SecuriLock
key is
read by the SecuriLock
passive anti-theft system. If the SecuriLock
key identification code matches the code stored in the SecuriLock
anti-theft system, the vehicle’s engine is allowed to start. If the
SecuriLock
key identification code does not match the code stored in
the system or if a SecuriLock
key is not detected (vehicle theft

keys for that vehicle are brought to

The SecuriLock
passive anti-theft system is not compatible with
aftermarket remote start systems. Use of these systems may result in

from touching the PATS ignition key while starting the engine. These
objects cannot damage the PATS ignition key, but can cause a
