OUTLINE OF THEFT DETERRENT SYSTEM
The theft deterrent system can be set by locking the doors using the transmitter or key.*1
The theft deterrent system can be set by locking the doors using the transmitter.*2
The alarm function will be activated when someone attempts to forcibly unlock any of the doors or open any of the doors, engine hood and 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*3 (or theft warning siren*4) 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 key.*1
The alarm can be cancelled by unlocking the doors using the transmitter.*2

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 key is not in the detection area and both of the following conditions are met:
The theft deterrent system is in the alarm sounding state of active arming mode.
Any door is unlocked.
PANIC ALARM CONTROL (w/ Panic Switch)
The panic alarm control makes it possible to voluntarily set off the panic alarm by pressing the panic switch on the wireless transmitter.
Conditions that cause the panic alarm control to set off the panic alarm:
The panic switch on the wireless transmitter is pressed under the following conditions:
The power switch is off.
The theft deterrent system is not in the alarm sounding state.
Conditions that cause the panic alarm control to shut off the alarm:
Any of the following conditions is met during panic alarm operation:
The power switch is turned off.
The panic switch is pressed again.
Any of the switches on the wireless transmitter (lock/unlock/power back door*) is pressed.
The panic alarm ends (approx. 27.5 seconds have elapsed).
The theft deterrent system switches to the alarm sounding state. Under this condition, the theft deterrent system is controlling the alarm rather than the panic alarm control. In order to cancel this alarm, refer to the theft deterrent system alarm sounding state cancellation procedure.

THEFT WARNING (SELF-POWER) SIREN (w/ Theft Warning Siren)
The theft warning siren has an internal battery. If any of the vehicle auxiliary battery or communication lines are opened, the theft warning siren detects it by itself and sounds. Although the theft warning siren usually sounds by receiving a signal from the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU).
The main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) sends an arming signal to the theft warning siren while switching to the armed state, as well as sending a disarming signal to the siren while switching to the disarmed state. Additionally, the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) can sound the theft warning siren by sending an alarm signal in the alarm sounding state.
SECURITY INDICATOR OUTPUT
The main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) outputs a signal to come on the security indicator, according to the state of the theft deterrent system. However, some of the actual lighting conditions of the security indicator are different from the output signals of the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU).
| State of Theft Deterrent System | Security Indicator | |
|---|---|---|
| Output Signal from Main Body ECU (Multiplex Network Body ECU) | 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 |
|---|---|
| 0.125 sec. | ON |
| 1.875 sec. | OFF |
Tech Tips
When the immobiliser system is set, the security indicator blinks during both the disarmed state and armed state, due to output signals from the immobiliser system.
