Encrypted Code Registration Using Ignition Key <Registration Using Ignition Key Only>

When the ignition key is lost or additional keys are requested, the ignition key must be used to register encrypted codes.

CAUTION: Two ignition keys that have been registered are needed.
  1. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position using the registered ignition key and keep it there for 5 seconds.
  2. Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position, and remove the registered ignition key.
  3. Within 30 seconds after the ignition key is removed, insert the other registered ignition key that has already been registered and turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
  4. The immobilizer indicator light starts flashing in approximately 10 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the "ON" position.
  5. When the immobilizer indicator light starts flashing, turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position and remove the ignition key.
    NOTE: When an error occurs while the immobilizer indicator light is flashing, the immobilizer indicator light extinguishes.
