4. FORCED DOOR LOCK CONTROL

(a) The forced door lock control prevents the vehicle from being tampered with. Immediately after a door is unlocked (armed starts), all doors are forced to lock by a forced door lock signal.

(1) If the following conditions are met, the forced door lock control is operated.

The key is not in the key cylinder.*
The theft deterrent system is in the armed state.
Any door is unlocked.

*: w/o Smart Key System

5. ALARM MEMORY FUNCTION

(a) If the alarm is set off (tampering is detected) while the theft deterrent system is armed, it will be stored by the alarm memory function. Whenever the theft deterrent system is canceled, the alarm memory function causes the taillights to light up for 2 seconds in order to inform you that the alarm has been set off.

(1) Conditions that cause the taillights to light up for 2 seconds:

The theft deterrent system has entered the alarm sounding state (tampering has been detected) at least once.

HINT:

Active arming mode: See Active Arming Mode.

6. PANIC ALARM CONTROL (w/ PANIC Switch)

HINT:

Security horn does not sound when the panic alarm control is operated.

(a) The panic alarm control makes it possible to voluntarily set off the panic alarm by pressing the panic switch on the wireless transmitter.

(1) Conditions that cause the panic alarm control to set off the panic alarm:

The panic switch on the wireless transmitter is pressed under the following conditions:

The ignition switch is off.
The theft deterrent system is not in the alarm sounding state.

(2) Conditions that cause the panic alarm control to shut off the alarm:

Any of the following conditions is met during panic alarm operation:

The ignition switch is turned to ON.
The panic switch is pressed again.
Any of the switches on the wireless transmitter (lock/unlock) is pressed.
The panic alarm ends (approximately 57 seconds have elapsed).
The theft deterrent system switches to the alarm sounding state. Under this condition, the theft deterrent system is controlling the alarm rather than the panic alarm control. In order to cancel this alarm, refer to the theft deterrent system alarm sounding state cancellation procedure.

7. SECURITY INDICATOR LIGHT OUTPUT

(a) According to the state of the theft deterrent system, the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) outputs a signal to turn the security indicator light on. However, some of the actual lighting conditions of the security indicator light are different from the output signals of the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU).

Output

State of Theft Deterrent System	Security Indicator Light
State of Theft Deterrent System	Output Signal from Main Body ECU (Multiplex Network Body ECU)	Actual Lighting Condition
Disarmed state (1), (2)	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

Blinking Cycle

Time	Security Indicator Light
0.125 seconds	ON
1.875 seconds	OFF

HINT:

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