> The indicator lamp below the interior

> The indicator lamp flashes immedi-

ately after the vehicle is locked: doors 
or luggage compartment lid are not 
completely closed. Even if you do not 
close the alerted area(s), the remain-
ing areas are secured, and the indi-
cator lamp will flash continuously 
after 10 seconds. However, the inte-
rior motion sensor is not activated

> The indicator lamp goes out immedi-

ately after the vehicle is unlocked: no 
manipulation or attempted intrusions 
have been detected in the period 
since the system was armed

> The indicator lamp flashes for 

10 seconds immediately after the 

vehicle is unlocked: an attempted 
entry has been detected in the period

Following triggering of an alarm, the

Tilt alarm sensor:

The tilt of the vehicle is monitored. The 
alarm system reacts, for example, to 
attempts to steal the wheels or tow the 
vehicle.

Interior motion sensor:

The vehicle interior is monitored up to 
the height of the seat cushions. Even 
when the convertible top is open, the 
alarm system including the interior 
motion sensor is armed. Objects falling 
into the vehicle, e.g. leaves, can trigger 
unintentional alarms, refer to Avoiding 
unintentional alarms.

The tilt alarm sensor and interior motion 
sensor may be switched off at the same 
time. You can do this to prevent a false 
alarm, e.g. in the following situations:
> In garages with elevator ramps

> When the vehicle is being trans-

ported by train

> When animals are to remain in the 

vehicle.

> Press the button on the remote con-

trol twice.

The indicator lamp lights up briefly and 
then flashes continuously. The tilt alarm 
sensor and the interior motion sensor 
are deactivated until the vehicle is 
unlocked and locked again.

You can have the tilt alarm sensor 
and the interior motion sensor 

permanently deactivated.

<

The system deactivates the tilt 
alarm sensor and the interior 

motion sensor if the convenience clos-
ing of windows and glass sunroof is 
interrupted within the first 10 seconds 
and then restarted. The vehicle must 
then be unlocked and relocked before 
the sensors will resume operation.
