ENGINE IMMOBILISER
2
(Depends on vehicle)
Engine Immobiliser prevents the ve-
hicle being driven by anyone not in
possession of the vehicle’s coded ig-
nition key.
Operating principle
The vehicle is automatically protect-
ed a few seconds after the ignition is
switched off.
If the vehicle does not recognise the
coded ignition key or wrong key is
used, the engine cannot be started.
System operation
When the ignition is switched on, the
vehicle has recognised the code.
You can then start the engine.
Vehicle protection
The vehicle will only be protected af-
ter the ignition has been switched
off.
Operating faults
After the ignition has been switched
on, if warning light
1
continues to
flash or remains continuously lit,
there is a system operating fault.
In all cases, it is essential to contact
an approved dealer as only they are
qualified to repair the engine immo-
biliser.
If the coded ignition key is faulty,
use the second key (supplied with
the vehicle).
Any unauthorised work
carried out on the en-
gine immobiliser (com-
puters, wiring, etc.)
could be dangerous. Work must
be carried out by qualified per-
sonnel.

ping the vehicle

ficient alone on your vehicle,
