causing damage to the starter  
motor and possible fire due to  
excessive current in the wiring.

ate power windows or other  
controls, or even make the vehi-  
cle move, which could result in

ton is changed to the ON position,  
the immobilizer system checks and  
verifies if the key is valid or not.  
Your vehicle may be equipped with an  
electronic engine immobilizer system

vehicle use.  
With the immobilizer system, when-  
ever you insert your ignition key into  
the ignition switch and turn it to ON,  
it checks and determines and verifies

If the key is valid, the engine will start.  
Your immobilizer system is comprised  
of a small transponder in the key and  
electronic devices inside the vehicle.
