Anti-Theft Alarm System
The anti-theft alarm can be armed or
disarm ed w ith the m aster key (identi
fied by red dot) by locking or unlock
ing either fro n t door or the trunk.
Operation
Once the alarm system has been
armed, the exterior vehicle lamps will
flash and the horn will sound in te rm it
te n tly when som eone tries t o :
•
open a door
•
open the trunk
•
open the hood
•
remove the radio
•
sw itch on or bridge the ignition
circu it
•
step on the brake pedal
•
raise the vehicle, i.e. tow ing away.
The alarm will last approxim ately
150 seconds in the form of blinking
exterior lamps. A t the same time an
additional horn will sound interm it
tently fo r 60 seconds, pause fo r
30 seconds, and repeat fo r another
60 seconds.
The alarm will stay on even if the arm
ing elem ent (a door, fo r example) is
immediately closed.
N ote:
If the radio is rem oved from its
m ounting when the anti-theft alarm is
armed the radio will autom atically be
rendered inoperative!
To avoid setting o ff the alarm uninten
tionally, do not arm the alarm system
in the follow ing situations; e.g.: A uto
ferry, auto train, when h itch in g /
unhitching a trailer, or heavy loading/
unloading. For this purpose use the
valet key and not the m aster key fo r
locking the vehicle.
Special Function
To activate the anti-theft alarm from
the trunk, tu rn the m aster key in the
trunk lock com pletely to the right and
pull it o u t in this position.
If you w ant the alarm system to be
armed at the tru n k only, turn the mas
te r key in the tru n k lock com pletely to
the right and pull it out in that posi
tion. Then disarm the rest of the vehi
cle by unlocking either fro n t door with
the m aster key. You can now lock or
unlock the doors and filler flap, as well
as start the engine, using the valet
key.
Do not give the m aster key to an
unauthorized person. We recom m end
that you carry the flat key safely with
you (e.g. in your wallet) so that it is
always handy. This key has the same
function as the m aster key.
