Theft indicator
The theft indicator on the instrument cluster will operate as follows:
When the ignition is OFF, the theft indicator will flash briefly every
two seconds to indicate the SecuriLock system is protecting your
vehicle.
When the ignition is turned to ON or START, the theft indicator will
light for three seconds and then go out. If the theft indicator stays on
for an extended period of time or flashes rapidly, have the system
serviced by your dealership or a qualified technician.
Programming spare SecuriLockி keys
Spare SecuriLock keys can be purchased from your dealership and
programmed to your SecuriLock passive anti-theft system (up to a
total of eight keys). Your dealership can program your new SecuriLock
key(s) to your vehicle or you can do it yourself using the following
simple procedure. To program a new SecuriLock key yourself, you will
need two previously programmed SecuriLock keys (keys that already
operate your vehicle’s engine). If two previously programmed
SecuriLock keys are not available (one or both of your original keys
were lost or stolen), you must bring your vehicle to your dealership to
have the spare SecuriLock key(s) programmed.
Procedure to program spare SecuriLockி keys to your vehicle
New SecuriLock keys must have the correct mechanical key cut for
your vehicle.
Conventional (non-SecuriLock) keys cannot be programmed to your
vehicle.
You will need to have two previously programmed SecuriLock keys and
the new unprogrammed SecuriLock key readily accessible for the
procedure. Please read and understand the entire procedure before you
begin.
1. Insert the first previously programmed SecuriLock key into the
ignition and turn the ignition from OFF to ON (maintain ignition in ON
for at least one second).
2. Turn ignition to OFF and remove the first SecuriLock key from the
ignition.
