Technical Standards Document
Number 114, Revision 0
Theft Protection and Rollaway Prevention
As defined by section
12 of the Motor Vehicle Safety Act, a Technical Standards
Document (TSD) is a document that reproduces an enactment of a foreign
government (e.g. a Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard issued by the
U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration). According to the
Act, the Motor Vehicle Safety Regulations may alter or override
some provisions contained in a TSD or specify additional requirements;
consequently, it is advisable to read a TSD in conjunction with the Act
and its counterpart Regulation. As a guide, where the corresponding Regulation
contains additional requirements, footnotes indicate the amending subsection
number.
TSDs are revised from time to time in order to incorporate amendments
made to the reference document, at which time a Notice of Revision is
published in the Canada Gazette, Part I. All TSDs are assigned
a revision number, with "Revision 0" designating the original version.
Identification of Changes
In order to facilitate the incorporation of a TSD, certain non-technical
changes may be made to the foreign enactment. These may include the deletion
of words, phrases, figures, or sections that do not apply under the Act
or Regulations, the conversion of imperial to metric units, the deletion
of superseded dates, and minor changes of an editorial nature. Additions
are underlined, and provisions that do not apply are stroked
through. Where an entire section has been deleted, it is replaced
by: "[CONTENT DELETED]". Changes are also made where there is
a reporting requirement or reference in the foreign enactment that does
not apply in Canada. For example, the name and address of the U.S. Department
of Transportation are replaced by those of the Department of Transport.
Effective Date and Mandatory Compliance Date
Compliance with the requirements of a TSD that is being introduced
for the first time is not mandatory until six months after publication
in the Canada Gazette, Part II, of the Regulations that incorporate
the TSD. In the case of a revision, compliance becomes mandatory six months
after publication of the Notice of revision in the Canada Gazette,
Part I, as long as the requirements of the previous version continue to
be met. Voluntary compliance is permitted as of the Effective Date of
the TSD.
Official Version of Technical Standards Documents
Technical Standards Documents may be consulted electronically in both
HTML and Portable Document Format (PDF) on the Department of Transport’s
Web site at www.tc.gc.ca/RoadSafety/mvstm_tsd/index_e.htm.
The PDF version is a replica of the TSD as published by the Department
and is to be used for the purposes of legal interpretation and application.

S5. Requirements2
Each vehicle subject to this TSD standard must
meet the requirements of S5.1 and S5.2. Open-body type vehicles are not
required to comply with S5.1.3.
S5.1 Theft Protection
S5.1.1 Each vehicle must have a starting system which,
whenever the key is removed from the starting system, prevents:
(a) The normal activation of the vehicle’s engine or motor; and
(b) Either steering, or forward self-mobility, of the vehicle, or both.
S5.1.2 For each vehicle type manufactured by a manufacturer,
the manufacturer must provide at least 1,000 unique key combinations,
or a number equal to the total number of the vehicles of that type manufactured
by the manufacturer, whichever is less. The same combinations may be used
for more than one vehicle type.
S5.1.3 Except as specified below, an audible warning
to the vehicle operator must be activated whenever the key is in the starting
system and the door located closest to the driver’s designated seating
position is opened. An audible warning to the vehicle operator need not
activate:
(a) After the key has been inserted into the starting system, and before
the driver takes further action; or
(b) If the key is in the starting system in a manner or position that
allows the engine or motor to be started or to continue operating; or
(c) For mechanical keys and starting systems, after the key has been
withdrawn to a position from which it may not be turned.
S5.1.4 If a vehicle is equipped with a transmission
with a “park” position, the means for deactivating the vehicle’s
engine or motor must not activate any device installed pursuant to S5.1.1(b),
unless the transmission is locked in the “park” position.
S5.2 Rollaway Prevention in Vehicles Equipped
With Transmissions With a “Park” Position
S5.2.1 Except as specified in S5.2.3, the starting system
required by S5.1 must prevent key removal when tested according to the
procedures in S6, unless the transmission or gear selection control is
locked in “park” or becomes locked in “park” as
a direct result of key removal.
S5.2.2 Except as specified in S5.2.4, the vehicle must
be designed such that the transmission or gear selection control cannot
move from the “park” position, unless the key is in the starting
system.
S5.2.3 Key Removal Override Option
At the option of the manufacturer, the key may be removed from the starting
system without the transmission or gear selection control in the “park”
position under one of the following conditions:
(a) In the event of electrical failure, including battery discharge,
the vehicle may permit key removal from the starting system without the
transmission or gear selection control locked in the “park”
position; or
(b) Provided that steering or self-mobility is prevented, the vehicle may
have a device by which the user can remove the key from the starting system
without the transmission or gear selection control locked in “park”.
This device must require:
(i) The use of a tool, and
(ii) Simultaneous activation of the device and removal of the key; or
(c) Provided that steering or self-mobility is prevented, the vehicle may
have a device by which the user can remove the key from the starting system
without the transmission or gear selection control locked in “park”.
This device must be covered by an opaque surface which, when installed:
(i) Prevents sight of and use of the device, and
(ii) Can be removed only by using a screwdriver or other tool.
S5.2.4 Gear Selection Control Override Option
The vehicle may have a device by which the user can move the gear selection
control from “park” after the key has been removed from the
starting system. This device must be operable by one of the three options
below:
(a) By use of the key; or
(b) By a means other than the key, provided steering or forward self-mobility
is prevented when the key is removed from the starting system. Such a
means must require:
(i) The use of a tool, and
(ii) Simultaneous activation of this means and movement of the gear selection
control from “park”; or
(c) By a means other than the key, provided steering or forward self-mobility
is prevented when the key is removed from the starting system. This device
must be covered by an opaque surface which, when installed:
(i) Prevents sight of and use of the device, and
(ii) Can be removed only by using a screwdriver or other tool.
