Anti-Theft - Active: Overview

Anti-Theft - Active

OVERVIEW
The active anti-theft system monitors the hinged panels for unauthorized opening. In some markets the anti-theft system also incorporates monitoring of the vehicle interior and vehicle tilt sensing.
The active anti-theft alarm system is controlled by the following body system control modules:
- CJB (central junction box)
- LH (left-hand) and RH (right-hand) front and rear door modules
- Instrument cluster.
The CJB (central junction box) is the main controller in the system. The CJB (central junction box) controls the following security functions, in addition to other vehicle functions:
- Locking, double locking and unlocking
- Monitoring of hinged panel micro switches and panel ajar states
- Interior motion sensor
- Battery backed sounder or vehicle horns
- Passive arming and disarming
- Panic alarm function
- Remote handset transponder reading
- Interior lighting.
Two levels of vehicle anti-theft alarm are available; perimeter mode monitors all opening panels and volumetric mode (if fitted) monitors the vehicle interior for intrusion and it also incorporates a tilt sensor to monitor if the vehicle is being moved.

NOTE:
Volumetric mode and tilt sensing are not available in certain markets.
The remote handset provides the following functionality:
- Unlock (central unlock or single point entry)
- Lock and double lock
- Tailgate release
- Approach lighting
- Panic alarm.
The lock and unlock buttons also control a 'lazy' lock and unlock feature which will automatically close or open the windows with an extended press of the applicable button. This feature is only available in certain markets and is controlled in conjunction with the door modules.

WARNING: Never double lock the vehicle with any person or animal inside.

NOTE:
Double locking is only available in certain markets.
The remote handset contains an emergency access key. This can be used in the event of failure of the remote handset or the vehicle battery to unlock the vehicle. The LH (left-hand) door handle contains a concealed mechanical key barrel which can be used with the emergency key to access the vehicle. This will not disable the perimeter or interior alarm systems which will be activated when the door is opened. To cancel the alarm, the remote handset must be held next to the Immobilizer Antenna Unit and the stop/start button must be pressed.
The remote handset is fitted with an integral vanadium lithium rechargeable battery.
