OUTLINE OF THEFT DETERRENT SYSTEM
The theft deterrent system can be set/canceled by locking/unlocking the doors using the following operation:
- Wireless lock operation
- Key linked lock operation
- By opening and closing the doors
In the armed state, the alarm function will be activated if one of the following conditions is met:
- Any of the doors are unlocked.
- Any of the doors, the engine hood or the back door is opened.
In the alarm sounding state, the system blinks the turn signal lights. At the same time, the system sounds the vehicle horns and security horn assembly to deter break-in and theft as well as to warn people around the vehicle.
The theft deterrent system can be canceled by unlocking the doors using the following operation:
- Wireless lock operation
The theft deterrent system has an active arming mode. There are 4 states in this mode: a disarmed state, an arming preparation state, an armed state and an alarm sounding state.
Disarmed state:
The alarm function is not operating.
The theft deterrent system is not operating.
Arming preparation state:
The time until the system goes into the armed state.
The theft deterrent system is not operating.
Armed state:
The theft deterrent system is operating.
Alarm sounding state:
The alarm function is operating.

| Vehicle Horns | Sounding (approximately 0.4-second cycles) |
|
| Security Horn Assembly | Sounding (approximately 0.4-second cycles) |
|
| Alarm Time | Approximately 27.5 seconds | |

ACTIVE ARMING MODE
Tech Tips
Active arming mode starts the alarm control immediately after the doors are locked.
Active arming mode:
This system operates as described in the diagram below when one of the items for each condition is met.
Tech Tips
The term "all doors" used in this section refers to the driver door, front passenger door, rear door LH and rear door RH and back door.
| Condition | Item |
|---|---|
| Condition [1] | In disarmed state 1, when the ignition switch is off, the system state is switched if the following condition is met:
In disarmed state 1, when the ignition switch is off, the engine hood is closed and all doors are locked, the system state is switched if the following condition is met:
|
| Condition [2] |
|
| Condition [3] | One of the following conditions is met:
|
| Condition [4] | One of the following conditions is met:
|
| Condition [5] | One of the following conditions is met:
|
| Condition [6] | After approximately 27.5 seconds, alarm stops and system returns to armed state. |
| Condition [7] |
|
| Condition [8] | One of the following conditions is met:
|
| Condition [9] | In disarmed state 1, when the ignition switch is off, the system state is switched if the following condition is met:
In disarmed state 1, when the ignition switch is off, the engine hood and back door are open and all doors are locked, the system state is switched if the following condition is met:
|
| Condition [10] |

FORCED DOOR LOCK CONTROL
The forced door lock control prevents the vehicle from being tampered with. Immediately after a door is unlocked (armed starts), all doors are forced to lock by a forced door lock signal.
If the following conditions are met, the forced door lock control is operated.
The theft deterrent system is in the armed state.
Any door is unlocked.
SECURITY INDICATOR LIGHT OUTPUT
According to the state of the theft deterrent system, the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) outputs a signal to turn the security indicator light on. However, some of the actual lighting conditions of the security indicator light are different from the output signals of the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU).
| State of Theft Deterrent System | Security Indicator Light | |
|---|---|---|
| Output Signal from Main Body ECU (Multiplex Network Body ECU) | Actual Lighting Condition | |
| Disarmed state (1), (2) | OFF | Off (Engine immobiliser system unset) Blinking (Engine immobiliser system set) |
| Arming preparation state | ON | On |
| Armed state | OFF | Blinking |
| Alarm sounding state | ON | On |
| Time | Security Indicator Light |
|---|---|
| 0.125 seconds | On |
| 1.875 seconds | Off |
Tech Tips
When the engine immobiliser system is set, the security indicator light blinks during both the disarmed state and the armed state, due to output signals from the engine immobiliser system.
