Anti-Theft Alarm System

The anti-theft alarm is automatically
armed or disarmed with any of your
vehicle's keys or infrared remote
control by locking or unlocking either
door or the trunk.
A blinking lamp (1) indicates that
the alarm is armed.
The anti-theft alarm is disarmed when
unlocking either door or the trunk
with any of your vehicle's keys or
infrared remote control.
Operation:
Once the alarm system has been
armed, the exterior vehicle lamps
will flash and the horn will sound
intermittently when someone:
• opens a door,
• opens the trunk,
• opens the hood,
• removes the radio,
• switches on or bridges the
ignition circuit,
• steps on the brake pedal,
opens the storage compartment
between the front seats
The alarm will last approximately 150
seconds in the form of blinking
exterior lamps. At the same time an
alarm horn will sound intermittently
for 60 seconds, pause for 30 seconds,
and repeat for another 60 seconds.
The alarm will stay on even if the
activating element (a door, for
example) is immediately closed.
Note:
We recommend that you carry the flat
key safely with you so that it is always
handy. This key has the same function
as the master key.
