smart key) is weak.

• Other vehicles or objects may be

blocking the signal.

• The weather is extremely cold.

• The transmitter (or smart key) is

close to a radio transmitter such as

a radio station or an airport which

can interfere with normal operation

of the transmitter.

When the transmitter (or smart key)

important when the phone is active

such as making calls, receiving

calls, text messaging, and/or send-

ing/receiving emails. Avoid placing

the transmitter and your cell phone

Immobilizer system

(if equipped)

Your vehicle may be equipped with

an electronic engine immobilizer sys-

tem to reduce the risk of unautho-

rized vehicle use.

Your immobilizer system is com-

prised of a small transponder in the

ignition key and electronic devices

inside the vehicle.

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

that the ignition key is valid.

If the key is determined to be valid,

the engine will start.

If the key is determined to be invalid,

the engine will not start.

To deactivate the immobilizer

system:

Insert the ignition key into the key

cylinder and turn it to the ON posi-

tion.

To activate the immobilizer sys-

tem:

Turn the ignition key to the OFF posi-

tion. The immobilizer system acti-

vates automatically. Without a valid

ignition key for your vehicle, the

engine will not start.

Your Immobilizer password is a cus-

tomer unique password and should

be kept confidential. Do not leave this

number anywhere in your vehicle.

✽

NOTICE

Keep each key separately in order to

avoid a starting malfunction.
