DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
EKA procedure - Vehicles from 96MY
If the vehicle is locked using the remote handset and
loss or failure of the handset occurs, the vehicle can
be unlocked and the alarm disarmed by entering a
four digit code using the key in the driver’s door lock
as described in the EKA procedure for vehicles up to
96MY with the following exceptions:
1. If the vehicle had not been locked with the
remote handset, then in step 4, the key must be
turned four times to the lock position.
2. The number of incorrect attempts is reduced to
three and the lockout period increased to thirty
minutes.
Lazy Seats
The lazy seat function is only available on vehicles
with memory seats. Holding the unlock button on the
remote handset for longer than 1.5 seconds will cause
automatic movement of the driver’s seat, door mirrors
and instrument panel illumination to a predetermined
position. The lazy seat operation is as programmed in
one of the two memory seat configurations
corresponding to the initiating remote handset.
The vehicle must be in a superlocked condition with
volumetric sensors active and the alarm armed. Once
the lazy seat function is operating the remote handset
unlock button can be released. Opening any door or
locking the vehicle will stop the seats and mirrors
moving.
Security LED
The security LED operates in two modes; confirmation
of lock status and theft deterrent.
In the confirmation mode, the LED will flash rapidly for
ten seconds to show that the lock request is
successful. After the ten second period the LED will
flash at the slower deterrent mode rate. If a panel is
left open or the vehicle has been slam locked, the
LED will remain unlit.
If a lock request is made and one or more panels
remain open, when the panels are closed, the LED
will flash rapidly for ten seconds to confirm lock status
and will then change to a slower flash in deterrent
mode.
Alarm Audible and Visual Warnings
Audible warnings
Audible warnings can be generated from a klaxon,
battery backed up sounder (BBUS - from 96MY) or
the vehicle horns. Some markets do not have any
audible alarm warnings. If a klaxon or BBUS is used
the output will be pulsed and synchronised with the
visual warning. If the vehicle horns are used the
output will be continuous.
Mislock warnings are always generated from either
the klaxon or the BBUS.
Visual warnings
External visual warnings are dependant on the
selected market, but are generated from either the
hazard warning indicators, side and tail lamps or head
and tail lamps.
If the hazard warning lamps are operating when a
visual warning using the hazard warning lamps is
required, the visual warning will be cancelled. If the
side or headlamps are on when a visual warning using
the side or headlamps is required, the lamps will flash
off instead of on.
Battery Backed-Up Sounder (BBUS) - certain
vehicles from 96MY
The BBUS was introduced into some markets from
96MY onwards and since the drive requirements are
different from the klaxon, the BBUS is market
programmable.
The BBUS has its own internal power supply. If the
vehicle battery or the BBUS is disconnected, the
BBUS will be triggered and will sound for
approximately 4.5 minutes.
To disconnect the BBUS, the ignition should be turned
on and then off. The BBUS connector must be
disconnected within 17 seconds of the ignition being
turned off or the BBUS will be triggered. When the
BBUS is sounding it can be cancelled by unlocking
the vehicle with the key or the remote handset only if it
is connected to the vehicle harness.
