Method for managing the operating condition of an anti-theft security device for a motor vehicle and device therefor
First Claim
1. A method for managing the operation of an anti-theft security device for a motor vehicle, which device consists of portable transmitting means (1), of a receiving module (11) on board said vehicle and of means controlling (12) a system (14, 14′
- ) for interrupting at least one circuit (15, 15′
) required for operating the vehicle, when the distance between said transmitting means (1) and said receiving module (11) exceeds a certain value, said circuit (15, 15′
) will be reset following an interruption upon accidental signal loss, wherein said circuit (15, 15′
) will reset itself very gradually once the signal between said on board vehicle and said portable transmitting means is regained after said signal loss.
