NOTICE

control while within range of the car.
• If you lock the car in very severe cold,
check that the doors lock properly.
The lock buttons on the doors should
all go down.
Failing this, unlock and then lock the

Movement sensor 3
The movement sensor monitors the cabin.
The alarm will be triggered if a movement
is detected, such as if someone sticks in
their arm through a smashed window.
Note:
The movement sensor could also be
triggered by an uninstalled cabin heater.
To prevent a false alarm, switch off the
movement sensor as described on page 57
when the cabin heater is to be used.

Tilt sensor 3

The tilt sensor monitors the angle of the car.
The tilt sensor will trigger the alarm if the
angle of the car changes relative to its angle
when it was locked, for example if it is raised
with a jack.
