Alarm system
*
The concept
The vehicle's alarm system responds:
>
When a door, the hood or the 
luggage compartment lid is opened.
>
To movement inside the vehicle 
(interior motion sensor).
>
To a change of the vehicle's tilt – if 
someone attempts to steal the wheels 
or tow the vehicle without authoriza-
tion, for example.
>
If there is an interruption of battery 
voltage.
The system responds to unauthorized 
vehicle entry and attempted theft by 
simultaneously activating the following:
>
Sounding an acoustical alarm for 
30 seconds.
>
The hazard warning flashers are acti-
vated for approx. five minutes.
>
The high beams flash on and off in 
the same rhythm.
To activate and deactivate the 
alarm system
When the vehicle is locked or unlocked 
by using a key or with the remote 
control, the alarm system is also simul-
taneously armed or disarmed.
The interior motion sensor and the tilt 
alarm sensor are activated approx. 
30 seconds after you have finished 
locking the vehicle.
If the alarm system has been armed 
correctly, the hazard warning flashers 
flash once. 
You can have a signal set as 
acknowledgment for both acti-
vating and deactivating the alarm.
<
You can also open the luggage 
compartment lid when the system is 
armed by pressing button 3 of the 
remote control (refer to page 
). When 
it is closed, the lid is once again 
secured.
Indicator lamp displays
The indicator lamp is located under the 
interior rearview mirror.
>
When the indicator lamp flashes 
continuously: the system is armed.
>
If the indicator lamp flashes during 
arming of the system: the door(s), the 
hood or luggage compartment lid are 
not completely closed. Even if you do 
not close the alerted area, the system 
begins to monitor the remaining 
areas, and the indicator lamp flashes 
continuously after 10 seconds. 
However, the interior motion sensor 
is not activated.
>
If the indicator lamp goes out when 
the system is disarmed: no manipula-
tion or attempted intrusions have 
been detected in the period since the 
system was armed.
