A MANDATORY engine immobiliser is backed up by remote keyless central door locking, which is a two-step system that unlocks the driver's door first, and then the rest of the doors.

Other features include an audible chirp if the door is ajar and an attempt is made to activate central locking. The 60/40 split-fold rear seat is lockable, as is the glovebox. The radio is security coded as well.

An alarm system is standard on higher grades of the V6, but the Atise misses out on this even as an option.
