      Function Outline
      Start Function

      The start function is operated by simply pushing the power switch while carrying the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly. When the power switch is pushed, the certification ECU turns the ACC relay, IG1 relay and IG2 relay on or off to switch the power source.*1


      • The power source changes depending on the depression of the brake pedal and the shift position.
      Immobiliser The immobiliser system compares the ID code that is registered in the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) with the ID code of the transponder chip that is embedded in the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly.
      Shift Lock The shift lock function is operated to lock and unlock the shift control by using a shift lock control actuator assembly in the hybrid vehicle transaxle assembly.
