THEFT DETERRENT SYSTEM SYSTEM DESCRIPTION


  1. THEFT DETERRENT SYSTEM DESCRIPTION


    1. The theft deterrent system is designed to deter vehicle break-ins and theft. If an attempted break-in or theft is detected, the alarm sound and the hazard warning lights and side turn signal lights flash. The system detects an attempted break-in or theft when any of the following occurs: 1) the vehicle is forcibly entered; 2) the engine hood is forcibly opened; 3) the doors are unlocked without the use of a key; or 4) the cable is disconnected from the negative (-) battery terminal and then reconnected. If the system enters the alarm sounding state, any unlocked doors automatically lock.

    2. The system has an 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 Alarm Time
        Vehicle horns Security horn assembly Hazard warning lights and side turn signal lights
        Sounding (cycle of 0.4 seconds) Sounding (cycle of 0.4 seconds) Blinking (cycle of flasher relay) 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 is output (refer to Forced Door Lock Control).

  3. ACTIVE ARMING MODE

    Tech Tips

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

    System State State Switching Condition Transfer to
    1. Disarmed state

    Perform one of following and system changes to "Arming preparation state":


    1. With all doors and engine hood closed, lock all doors by wireless operation

    2. With engine hood open, lock all doors and close engine hood

    		 2. Arming preparation state
    2. Arming preparation state

    4. Turn ignition switch to ON or ACC

    5. Reconnect battery

    		 1. Disarmed state

    Perform one of following and system changes to "Disarmed state":


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

    2. Allow 10 (+/-1.5) seconds to elapse*2

    		 3. Armed state
    3. Armed State

    5. Force engine ignition system to turn on without proper engine start method

    6. Shock sensor function is off*3

    		 4. Alarm sounding state
    4. Alarm sounding state

    Perform one of following and system changes to "Disarmed state":


    1. Unlock all doors by wireless operation

    2. Turn ignition switch to ON or ACC

    		 1. Disarmed state

    Perform one of following and system changes to "Armed state":


    1. Allow 30 (+/-5) seconds to elapse

    		 3. Armed state (alarm stops sounding)

    • *1: for Arming Preparation State 30 Seconds

    • *2: for Arming Preparation State 10 Seconds

    • *3: This function can be disable in accordance with user preference. For details, refer to Customize Parameters.

  4. FORCED DOOR LOCK CONTROL


    1. 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.

        • A door is unlocked.

  5. SECURITY INDICATOR LIGHT OUTPUT


    1. The security indicator light assembly turns on and off based on output signals from the theft warning ECU assembly. However, in some cases, the actual status of the security indicator light is different from the output signals from the theft warning ECU assembly.

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

      • *: w/ Engine Immobiliser System

      Blinking Cycle
      Time Security Indicator
      0.2 seconds On
      1.8 seconds Off

      Tech Tips

      *: w/ Engine Immobiliser System

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

  6. ALARM MEMORY FUNCTION


    1. The alarm memory function informs the user if the theft deterrent system entered the alarm sounding state while the user was away.


      1. After the theft deterrent system is set, if the system enters the alarm sounding state and the alarm sounding state ends before the theft deterrent system is canceled by the user, the alarm memory function will operate. When the theft deterrent system is canceled by the user, the alarm memory function will flash the hazard warning lights 3 times at 0.35 seconds intervals.

  7. STARTER CUT FUNCTION (w/o Engine Immobiliser System)


    1. When the alarm is sounding, voltage to the starter is cut.
