The anti-theft alarm system protects the
tractor vehicle and the attached trailer/
semitrailer against break-in and theft.
The activated anti-theft alarm system trig-
gers an optical and acoustic alarm if:
a door is opened
the maintenance flap is opened
the cab is tilted
a stowage compartment is opened on
the driver's or co-driver's side
a connecting cable to the trailer or
semitrailer is disconnected
the driver's door is unlocked using the
"Lock door" switch in the driver's door
control panel if the vehicle was locked
from the outside
the voltage supply is interrupted due to
the battery terminal clamps being un-
done, for example.
supply to the anti-theft alarms is inter-
rupted
the panic switch in the cab interior is
pressed
a signal is set off by sensors fitted by
the body manufacturer.
To activate the anti-theft alarm system
with monitoring of all sensors, the follow-
ing must be observed:
Only those components that were in
the ready position, i.e. locked or at-
tached, when the alarm was activated
will trigger an alarm.
The anti-theft alarm system only moni-
tors closed or attached components.
The turn signals

confirm the locking
procedure with activated anti-theft
alarm system only when all compo-
nents are in the ready position.
On vehicles with enhanced central
locking system, the side windows close
first and then the sliding/ tilting sun-
roof before the turn signals confirm
completion of the locking procedure.
It is possible to place a component in
the ready position up to ten seconds
after the anti-theft alarm system has
been activated. The anti-theft alarm
system then monitors this component.
The anti-theft alarm system cannot
monitor trailers or semitrailers with
LED tail lamps.
The multi-function display shows
Trailer cannot be monitored! .
