Security System

Immobilizer System

The immobilizer system prevents a key that has not been pre-registered from
starting the engine. Each key contains electronic transmitters that use electronic
signals to verify the key.

Pay attention to the following when inserting the key into the ignition switch or
pressing the ENGINE START/STOP button:
• Do not allow objects that emit strong radio waves near the ignition switch or the

ENGINE START/STOP button.

• Make sure the key is not covered by or touching a metal object.
• Do not bring a key from another vehicle’s immobilizer system near the ignition

switch or the ENGINE START/STOP button.

• Do not put the key near magnetic items. Electronic devices, such as a television set

and audio system are strongly magnetic, or a key chain can become magnetic, too.
