OPERATION
When the drive-away protection function is activated on the on-board computer (code entered) or when the Antitheft System (DWA) is armed, a signal (>10 V) is sent to the Digital Motor Electronic (DME) control unit which consequently switches off the ignition and injection.

This function can only be activated below an engine speed of approx. 500 rpm.
