Key Identification and Usage
The keys are double sided and reversible. The master key and the valet key contain transponders that are read by the theft deterrent system when the keys are used in the ignition. The keys have 10 cuts positions (1) with 4 different depths (2).
Scheme 1
The keys that are furnished with the vehicle are
- The master key, that contains a transponder (3). This key will operate all of the locks on the vehicle.
- The valet key, that contains a transponder (3). This key will operate the door locks and the ignition lock only.
- The emergency key, that does not contain a transponder. This key will operate the door locks, and the IP storage compartment lock only. This key is only intended for emergency use.
Lock Cylinder Tumbler Operation
Each of the four cut depths on the key has corresponding tumblers (sometimes referred to as plates or wafers). The tumbler depth number is stamped on the tumblers for identification. The IP storage compartment lock cylinder also requires a retainer tumbler. The retainer tumbler is not moved by the key, its function is to retain the IP storage compartment lock cylinder in the lock assembly.
