On-Vehicle Inspection

ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION

1. OUTLINE OF THEFT DETERRENT SYSTEM
a. When the theft deterrent system detects that the vehicle is being tampered with, the vehicle horn and security horn will sound; room lamps will illuminate; and hazard warning lamps, taillamps and headlamps will flash continuously.
b. The system has 2 modes: active arming mode (see step 2) and passive arming mode (see step 3).
Passive arming mode can be turned ON and OFF (see step 4).
c. Each mode has 4 states: disarmed state, arming preparation state, armed state and alarm sounding state.
1. Disarmed state:
- The alarm function is not operating.
- The theft deterrent system is not operating.
2. Arming preparation state:
- The theft deterrent system is not operating.
3. Armed state:
- The theft deterrent system is operating.
Alarm time: 60 ± 5 seconds




4. Alarm sounding state:
- The alarm function is operating.

HINT: If, during the alarm sounding state, one of the doors is unlocked and no key is in the ignition key cylinder, a forced door lock signal will be output (see step 5).

2. ACTIVE ARMING MODE

Part 1:




Part 2:




- Active arming mode starts the alarm control immediately after the doors are locked.

Part 2:




3. PASSIVE ARMING MODE
- Passive arming mode can be turned ON and OFF (see step 4).
- The vehicles initial alarm setting is active arming mode.
- During passive arming mode, the theft deterrent system enters the armed state even if the doors are not locked.
- Passive arming mode starts the alarm control after the key is removed from the ignition key cylinder and the doors are closed.
- Detecting that the doors are unlocked does not set off the alarm during passive arming mode.
- A forced door lock signal is not output during passive arming mode (see step 5).
- When the theft deterrent system detects that the doors are opened during passive arming mode, the alarm is not set off immediately depending on the entry delay time setting.
- If any of the following conditions is fulfilled during passive arming mode, the theft deterrent system will switch to active arming mode.
- With all doors and engine hood closed, lock all doors by key operation.
- With all doors and engine hood closed, lock all doors by wireless operation.
- With any door or engine hood open, lock all doors and close all doors and engine hood.




4. METHOD FOR CHANGING OF PASSIVE MODE (ON OR OFF)

5. FORCED DOOR LOCK CONTROL
a. The forced door lock control also helps to prevent the vehicle from being tampered with. When a door is unlocked and the alarm starts, the door is forced to lock by a forced door lock signal.

1. Conditions that force the doors to lock:
- No key is in the ignition key cylinder.
- 0.4 seconds have elapsed after the previous output of a forced door lock signal.
- The theft deterrent system is in the alarm sounding state of active arming mode.
- Any door is unlocked.

6. ALARM MEMORY FUNCTION
a. If the alarm is set off (tampering is detected) while the theft deterrent system is in the armed state, the alarm memory function will record it. Whenever the theft deterrent system is cancelled, the alarm memory function causes the taillamps to illuminate for 2 seconds in order to inform you that the alarm has been set off.

1. Conditions of the alarm memory function that cause the taillamps to illuminate:
When the theft deterrent system has entered into the alarm sounding state (tampering has been detected) even once, the taillamps will illuminate for 2 seconds if any of the following conditions is fulfilled:
- Switched to the disarmed state from the armed state during active arming mode.
- Switched to the disarmed state 1.from the armed state during passive arming mode.

HINT: For more information about the active arming mode, see step 2.For more information about the passive arming mode, see step 3.

7. PANIC ALARM CONTROL
a. The panic alarm control activates the panic alarm when the wireless transmitter PANIC switch is pressed. The panic alarm control operates independently from the theft deterrent systems alarm controls change from the armed state to the alarm sounding state.

1. Conditions that cause the panic alarm control to set off the panic alarm:
The panic alarm control sets off the panic alarm when the PANIC switch on the wireless transmitter is pressed for over 2.4 seconds under the following conditions.
- The ignition switch is OFF.
- The theft deterrent system is not in the alarm sounding state (same for active arming mode and passive arming mode).
- The panic alarm control is not operating (the alarm is not set OFF).

2. Conditions that cause the panic alarm control to shut off the alarm:
The panic alarm control shuts off the panic alarm when any of the following conditions is fulfilled during panic alarm operation.
- Turn the ignition switch ON.
- Any of the wireless transmitter switches are pressed.
- 60 ± 5 seconds have passed and the panic alarm has ended.
- The theft deterrent system switches to the alarm sounding state (same for active arming mode and passive arming mode). However, the alarm is still sounding, because the theft deterrent system has switched to the alarm sounding state. Conditions for canceling the panic alarm are the same as for the alarm control.

HINT: For more information about the active arming mode, see step 2.For more information about the passive arming mode, see step 3.

8. SECURITY INDICATOR OUTPUT







a. The security indicator turns on and off based on output signals from the theft warning ECU. However, in some cases the actual status of the security indicator is different from the output signals of the theft warning ECU.

HINT:
- *: same for active arming mode and passive arming mode
- When the immobilizer system is set, the security indicator blinks during the disarmed state and the armed state due to the output signals from the immobilizer system.
