Press the window shut to close it.
Make sure that the corners of any pointed 
or sharp-edged cargo are padded if they

ments of the rear window could be damaged.

Alarm system*
The concept
The vehicle alarm system responds:
>
When a door, the hood or the luggage com-
partment lid/tailgate is opened
>
To movements inside the vehicle: Interior 
motion sensor, re
fer to page
>
When the car's inclination changes, for 
instance if an attempt is made to jack it up 
and steal the wheels or to raise it prior to 
towing away
>
When there is an interruption in the power 
supply from the battery
The alarm system signals unauthorized entry 
attempts for a short time by means of:
>
An acoustic alarm
>
Switching on the hazard warning flashers
>
Flashing the high beams
Arming and disarming
When you lock or unlock the vehicle, either with 
the remote control or at the door lock, the alarm 
system is armed or disarmed at the same time.
You can open the luggage compartment lid/tail-
gate even when the alarm system is armed, by 
pressing the 
 button on the remote control, 
refer to page

. The lid is locked and moni-
tored again as soon as you close it.
Panic mode*
You can trigger the alarm system if you find 
yourself in a dangerous situation:
Press the 
 button for at least three seconds.
To switch off the alarm: press any button.
Switching off an alarm

ignition lock.
Indicator lamp displays
>
The indicator lamp under the inside rear-
view mirror flashes continuously: the sys-
tem is armed.
>
The indicator lamp flashes after locking: 
doors, hood, luggage compartment lid/tail-
gate or rear window are not properly closed. 
Even if you do not close the alerted area, the 
system begins to monitor the remaining 
areas, and the indicator lamp flashes con-
tinuously after approx. 10 seconds. The 
interior motion sensor and the tilt alarm 
sensor are not activated.
>
The indicator lamp goes out after unlocking: 
your vehicle has not been disturbed while 
you were away.
>
If the indicator lamp flashes after unlocking 
until the remote control is inserted in the 
ignition, but for no longer than approx. 
5 minutes: your vehicle has been disturbed 
while you were away.
Tilt alarm sensor
The tilt of the vehicle is monitored. The alarm 
system reacts, e.g. to attempts to steal a wheel 
or tow the vehicle.
Interior motion sensor
In order for the interior motion sensor to func-
tion properly, the windows and glass roof must 
be completely closed
