opened
> To movements inside the vehicle: interior
motion sensor, refer to page

> When the car's inclination changes, e.g.
if an attempt is made to jack it up and steal
the wheels or to raise it prior to towing away:
tilt alarm sensor, refer to page
35
> When there has been an interruption of
power supply from the battery
Depending on the market-specific version, the
alarm system briefly signals unauthorized entry
attempts by:
> An acoustic alarm
> Switching on
*
the hazard warning flashers
