Alarm system Electric power windows
>
If the indicator lamp flashes for
10 seconds when the system is dis-
armed: an attempted entry has been
detected in the period since the
system was armed.
Following triggering of an alarm, the
indicator lamp will flash continuously.
Avoiding unintentional alarms
The tilt alarm sensor and interior motion
sensor may be switched off at the same
time. You can do this to prevent an
unintentional alarm from being trig-
gered (in garages with elevator ramps,
for instance), or when the vehicle is
transported by trailer or train:
Actuate the lock (= arm the system)
twice; in other words, press button 2 of
the remote control twice in succession
(refer to page
29 ). You may also actuate
the locks twice with the key (refer to
page
27 ).
The indicator lamp lights up briefly and
then flashes continuously. The tilt alarm
sensor and the interior motion sensor
are deactivated as long as the system is
armed.
Interior motion sensor
In order for the interior motion sensor to
function properly, the windows and
sliding/tilt sunroof must be completely
closed.
Nevertheless, you should deactivate
the interior motion sensor (refer to
"Avoiding unintentional alarms") if
>
children or animals are left in the
vehicle
>
the windows or the sliding/tilt sunroof
are being left open.
To open and close windows
In ignition key position 1 and 2:
>
Depress the rocker switch until you
feel resistance:
The window continues moving for as
long as you maintain pressure on the
switch
>
Press the rocker switch beyond the
pressure point:
The window moves automatically.
Press the switch a second time to
stop the window.
