has 10 seconds to switch the key on

ignition to avoid alarm trigger.

During this period, horn chirps will

sound.

If there was an alarm trigger during

the period anti-theft alarm system

was active, on deactivation, the

horn will issue 3 chirps and hazard

flashers will flash 3 times as a

violation warning.

Alarm

The horn will sound and the signal

lamps will flash for 30 seconds when

the alarm is triggered.

The triggering of the alarm through

any door or source can be

reactivated only 30 seconds after

the source has been cancelled.

The anti-theft alarm system can be

deactivated only by pressing the

button

K or switching on the

ignition.

Immobilizer

The system is integrated into the

ignition switch and checks whether

the vehicle is allowed to start with

the key being used. If the

transponder in the key is

recognized, the vehicle can be

started.

This vehicle has a passive

theft-deterrent system. The system

does not have to be manually

armed or disarmed.

The vehicle is automatically

immobilized when the vehicle is

turned off. The system is

automatically disarmed when the

ignition is turned from off to on. The

security light, in the instrument

cluster, comes on if there is a

problem with arming or disarming

the theft-deterrent system.

When trying to start the vehicle, the

security light comes on briefly when

the ignition is turned on. If the

engine does not start and the

security light stays on, there is a

problem with the system. Turn the

ignition off and try again. If the

engine still does not start, and the

key appears to be undamaged, try

another ignition key. It may be

necessary to check the fuse. If the

engine still does not start with the

other key, the vehicle needs service.

If the vehicle does start, the first key

may be faulty. See your dealer.

It is possible for the immobilizer

system to learn new or replacement

keys. Up to eight keys can be

programmed for the vehicle. Do not

leave the key or device that disarms

or deactivates the vehicle theft

system in the vehicle. See your

dealer to get a new key blank cut

exactly as the ignition key that

operates the system.

Note

The immobilizer does not lock the

doors. You should always lock the

vehicle after leaving it and switch on

the anti-theft alarm system. See

Manual Door Locks 0 11 and

Anti-theft Alarm System 0 17.

See Immobilizer Light 0 80.

Exterior Mirrors

Convex Mirrors

Caution

A convex mirror can make things,

like other vehicles, look farther

away than they really are.

The convex exterior mirror reduces

blind spots. The shape of the mirror

makes objects appear smaller,

which will affect the ability to

estimate distances.

Manual Mirrors

The adjustment is performed

manually by tilting it to a suitable

position.

Power Mirrors

Move the selector switch to the L

(left) or R (right) to choose the driver

or passenger mirror. Move the
