OUTLINE OF THEFT DETERRENT SYSTEM
The theft deterrent system can be set by locking the doors using the transmitter or the smart entry and start system.
The alarm function will be activated when someone attempts to forcibly unlock any of the doors or open any of the doors, engine hood or back door while the system is in the armed state.
In the alarm sounding state, the hazard warning lights blink. At the same time, the system sounds the vehicle horns and security horn to deter break-in and theft as well as to warn people around the vehicle.
The alarm can be cancelled by unlocking the doors using the transmitter or the smart entry and start system.

FORCED DOOR LOCK CONTROL
The forced door lock control prevents the vehicle from being tampered with. Immediately after a door is unlocked (alarm starts), all doors are forced to lock by a forced door lock signal.
Conditions that force the doors to lock:
The theft deterrent system is in the alarm sounding state of active arming mode.
Any door is unlocked.
SECURITY INDICATOR OUTPUT
The certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) outputs a signal to turn on the security indicator light according to the state of the theft deterrent system. However, some of the actual lighting conditions of the security indicator light are different from the output signals of the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly).
| State of Theft Deterrent System | Security Indicator | |
|---|---|---|
| Output Signal from Certification ECU (Smart Key ECU Assembly) | Actual Lighting Condition | |
| Disarmed state (1), (2) | OFF | OFF (Immobiliser system unset) BLINKING (Immobiliser system set) |
| Arming preparation state | ON | ON |
| Armed state | OFF | BLINKING |
| Alarm sounding state | ON | ON |
| Time | Security Indicator |
|---|---|
| 0.1 sec. | ON |
| 1.8 sec. | OFF |
Tech Tips
When the engine immobiliser system is set, the security indicator light blinks during both the disarmed state and armed state, due to output signals from the engine immobiliser system.
