Keys and Locks

These keys contain electronic

circuits that are activated by the

Immobilizer System. They will not

work to start the engine if the

circuits are damaged.

Protect the keys from direct

sunlight, high temperature, and

high humidity.

Do not drop the keys or set heavy

objects on them.

Keep the keys away from liquids.

If they get wet, dry them immedi-

ately with a soft cloth.

The keys do not contain batteries.

Do not try to take them apart.

Remote Transmitter

Some models also come with two

remote transmitters; see page

78

for

an explanation of their operation.

Immobilizer System

The Immobilizer System protects

your car from theft. A properly-

coded master or valet key must be

used in the ignition switch for the

engine to start. If an improperly-

coded key (or other device) is used,

the engine's fuel system is disabled.

When you turn the ignition switch to

ON (II), the Immobilizer System

indicator should come on for a few

seconds, then go out. If the indicator

starts to blink, it means the system

does not recognize the coding of the

key. Turn the ignition switch to

LOCK (0), remove the key, reinsert

it, and turn the switch to ON (II)

again.
