THEFT-ALARM SYSTEM

THEFT-ALARM SYSTEM OPERATION

When the theft-alarm system has been armed, if a door, liftgate, glass hatch or hood is opened, the horn will sound and headlights flash (high-beam) intermittently for a period of 180 seconds. This system is controlled by the ETACS-ECU. The system is composed of the components described below.

PANIC ALARM FUNCTION

With the theft-alarm function armed, pressing the panic button on the keyless entry system transmitter causes the horn to sound for about 180 seconds in an attempt to prevent theft. The alarm is turned off by pressing any switch on the transmitter.
