How is the alarm switched off?
To deactivate the anti theft alarm, the key must be turned to the open position
in the driver's door and the ignition must be turned on within 15 seconds, or

the button on the remote control may also be used.
•
The indicator light flashes twice on opening and the alarm is deactivated.
•
The indicator light flashes once on closing and the alarm is activated.
In vehicles equipped with an additional* alarm system, if the vehicle is
opened using the driver's door key, you have 15 sec to insert the key in the
ignition lock and activate the ignition. Otherwise, the alarm will go off for 30
sec. and the ignition will be blocked.
In vehicles with keys without remote control it is necessary to wait 30 seconds
until the alarm stops. Then lock the vehicle using the key and repeat the
above process.
If the vehicle is opened at any door other than the driver's door or the tailgate
the alarm will go off for 30 seconds.
Note
•
After 28 days the indicator light will switch off to prevent the battery
running down where the vehicle has been left parked for a long period of
time. The alarm system remains activated.
•
If, after the alarm has stopped, attempts are made to open another
protection zone, the alarm will be triggered again.
•
The alarm system can be activated or deactivated using the remote
control ⇒ page 78.
Safety First Operating instructions
Volumetric sensor*
Monitoring or control function incorporated in the anti-theft
alarm*, that detects unauthorized vehicle entry using ultra-
sound.
The system consists of 3 sensors, 2 emitters and a receptor.
Activation
– It is automatically turned on with the anti-theft alarm, when the
vehicle is locked mechanically with the key and when the button

on the remote control is used.
Deactivation
– Open the vehicle with the key, either mechanically
pressing the button  on the remote control.
– Press the button  on the remote control twice. Only the volu-
metric sensor is deactivated. The alarm system remains acti-
vated.
The interior monitoring system will be switched on automatically with the
anti-theft alarm. All of the doors and the tailgate must be closed to activate
the sensor of the interior monitoring system.
The interior monitor should be switched off, if for example animals are briefly
left in the locked vehicle. Their movements could otherwise trigger an alarm.
The interior monitor should also be deactivated if the windows are left
slightly open, otherwise the alarm may be triggered due to the effect caused
by wind entering the vehicle.
