Engine Immobilizer System
An Engine Immobilizer System is a security system
that prevents the vehicle being operated by an
unauthorized person. The Engine immobilizer
prevents the engine from being started unless it
recognizes signals from the correct coded key. When a wrong
key is inserted or a theft attempt is detected, the alarm is set
off, and the hazard lamps flash along with a siren.
The system is automatically activated when the key is
removed from the ignition.
Features of the Immobilizer System:
• Prevents the vehicle being started by anyone not in pos-
session of the correct vehicle key
• The vehicle is automatically protected after the key is
removed from the ignition. At every ignition ON, if the
vehicle does not recognize the correct key code, the
engine check lamp will be illuminate/blink and the
engine cannot be started
• The vehicle will not be protected until the key has been
taken out of the ignition
CAUTION
If the engine check lamp flashes or remains
continuously illuminated after the ignition being
switched ON, there is a system malfunction. Contact
an Authorized Mahindra Dealer immediately.
Inserting the correct coded key in the ignition and switching
the ignition ON, automatically deactivates the system. This
enables the engine to start.
NOTICE
In the event of the vehicle not starting with the
correct key, switch off the ignition for a minimum of 1
minute and attempt to start the vehicle again.
CAUTION
Do not modify, remove or disassemble the engine
immobilizer system. Any unauthorized changes or
modifications can affect proper operation of the
system and will void your warranty.
NOTICE
The security system will be activated only when the
vehicle is locked using the RKE. Locking the doors with
the manual key will not activate the security system.
