Alarm system
*
The principle
The alarm system reacts if:
>
A door, the engine compartment, the
luggage compartment lid/tailgate or
the rear window are opened
>
There is any movement inside the car
(interior movement detector)
>
The car's angle changes, for instance
if an attempt is made to jack it up and
steal the wheels or to raise it prior to
towing away
>
There is an interruption in the power
supply from the battery.
Depending on the national-market
version of the car, the alarm system
indicates unauthorised entry or
tampering in different ways:
>
30-second acoustic alarm
>
Switching on the hazard warning
flashers for approx. five minutes
*
.
Activating and deactivating
Whenever the car is locked or
unlocked, either at the lock or with the
remote control, the alarm system is
activated or deactivated at the same
time.
You can arrange for various kinds
of signal to be generated as
confirmation that the system has been
activated and deactivated correctly.
<
Even if the system has been activated,
you can open the luggage compartment
lid/tailgate by pressing the remote
control button (see page 36). When it is
closed, the lid/tailgate is automatically
protected again.
On certain national-market
versions, the alarm system can
only be operated by the remote control.
On these cars, unlocking with a key
triggers off the alarm.
To switch off the alarm:
Press the button (to unlock, see
page 35) or turn the ignition key to
position 1.
<
Alarm system indicator light
>
If the indicator light under the inside
mirror flashes steadily: the system is
activated
>
If the indicator light flashes when the
system is being activated: not all
doors, lids or the rear window are
properly closed. Even if an item is not
closed fully, the remaining items are
protected and the indicator light
begins to flash steadily after 10
seconds. However, the interior move-
ment detector is not activated
>
If the indicator light goes out when
the system is deactivated, no attempt
was made to tamper with the car
during your absence
