THEFT DETERRENT SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK

Tech Tips


  • Before checking the theft deterrent system function, cancel the entry and start system.

  • If the battery is reconnected during the armed state, the system may enter the alarm sounding state and the alarm may sound. If so, perform a wireless unlock operation to stop the alarm.

  • For vehicles with a theft warning siren, if the battery is disconnected during the armed state, the system may enter the alarm sounding state and the alarm may sound. If so, perform a wireless unlock operation to stop the alarm.


  1. OUTLINE OF THEFT DETERRENT SYSTEM


    1. When the theft deterrent system detects that the vehicle is being tampered with, the horns sound and lights flash continuously. For vehicles with a siren, the theft warning siren sounds simultaneously.

    2. The system has active arming mode (refer to "Active Arming Mode").

    3. Active arming mode has 4 states: disarmed state, arming preparation state, armed state and alarm sounding state.


      1. Disarmed state:


        • The alarm function is not operating.

        • The theft deterrent system is not operating.

      2. Arming preparation state:


        • The theft deterrent system is not operating.

      3. Armed state:


        • The theft deterrent system is operating.

      4. Alarm sounding state:


        • The alarm function is operating (30 +/-5 seconds).

        Alarm Method and Time
        Alarm Method Hazard Warning Light Blinking (cycle of flasher relay)
        Vehicle Horn Sounding (cycle of 0.4 seconds)
        Security Horn*1 Sounding (cycle of 0.4 seconds)
        Headlight*1 Flashing
        Taillight*1 Flashing
        Room Light Illuminating
        Theft Warning Siren*2 Sounding (cycle of 0.4 seconds)
        Security Indicator Illuminating
        Alarm Time 30 +/-5 seconds

        Tech Tips


        • If during the alarm sounding state, one of the doors is unlocked without using a proper key, a forced door lock signal will be output (refer to "Forced Door Lock Control").

        • *1: w/ Security Horn

        • *2: w/ Theft Warning Siren

  2. ACTIVE ARMING MODE

    Tech Tips


    • Active arming mode starts the alarm control immediately after the doors are locked.

    • Before checking the theft deterrent system, cancel the entry and start system.

    6. Reconnect battery.

    		 1. Disarmed state

    Perform one of following, and system will go on to "Armed state":


    1. Allow 30 (+/-1.5) seconds to elapse.

    		 3. Armed state
    3. Armed State

    Perform one of following, and system will go on to "Disarmed state":


    1. Unlock all doors by wireless operation.

    2. Unlock all doors using mechanical key.*1

    3. With brake pedal depressed, put and hold key 10 mm (0.393 in.) from engine switch with key ornament facing engine switch for 5 seconds, and turn engine switch on (IG).

    		 1. Disarmed state

    Perform one of following, and system will go on to "Alarm sounding state":


    1. Open engine hood.

    2. Open door.

    3. Unlock door without using wireless operation.*2

    4. Unlock door without using mechanical key.*1

    Tech Tips

    *1: w/ Security Horn

    *2: w/ Theft Warning Siren

    *3: For vehicles with a theft warning siren, the siren begins to sound as soon as the battery cable is disconnected.

  3. FORCED DOOR LOCK CONTROL


    1. The forced door lock control also helps to prevent the vehicle from being tampered with. When a door is unlocked and the alarm starts, the door is forced to lock by a forced door lock signal.


      1. Conditions that force the doors to lock:


        • 0.4 seconds have elapsed after the previous output of a forced door lock signal.

        • The theft deterrent system is in the alarm sounding state of active arming mode.

        • A door is unlocked.

  4. PANIC ALARM CONTROL (w/ Panic Switch)


    1. The panic alarm control activates the panic alarm when the wireless transmitter panic switch is pressed. The panic alarm control operates independently from the change of the theft deterrent system alarm control from the armed state to the alarm sounding state.


      1. Conditions that cause the panic alarm control to set off the panic alarm:

        The panic alarm is activated when the panic switch on the wireless transmitter is pressed and held for 1.0 seconds or more under the following conditions.


        • The engine switch is off.

        • The theft deterrent system is not in the alarm sounding state.

        • The panic alarm control is not operating (the alarm is not set off).

      2. Conditions that cause the panic alarm control to shut off the alarm:

        The panic alarm is deactivated when any of the following conditions is fulfilled during panic alarm operation.


        • The engine switch is turned on (IG).

        • The wireless transmitter lock/unlock switch is pressed.

        • 60 +/-5 seconds have passed and the panic alarm has ended.

        • The theft deterrent system changes to the alarm sounding state. However, the alarm still sounds, because the theft deterrent system has changed to the alarm sounding state.

          Conditions for canceling the panic alarm are the same as for the alarm control.

        Tech Tips

        For more information about active mode, refer to "Active Arming Mode".

  5. SECURITY INDICATOR OUTPUT


    1. The security indicator turns on and off based on output signals from the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly). However, in some cases, the actual status of the security indicator is different from the output signals of the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly).

      Output
      State of Theft Deterrent System Security Indicator
      Output Signals from ECU Actual Lighting Condition
      Disarmed state Off

      Off (Immobiliser system not set)

      Blinking (Immobiliser system set)
      Arming preparation state On On
      Armed state Off Blinking
      Alarm sounding state On On
      Blinking Cycle
      Time Security Indicator
      0.125 seconds On
      1.875 seconds Off

      Tech Tips

      When the immobiliser system is set, the security indicator blinks during the disarmed state and the armed state due to the output signals from the immobiliser system.
