Note:

i) If the system is armed when a door is not fully shut, three

triple beeps will sound as a warning and the doors will not

be locked. Opening a door will not trigger the alarm.

ii) If the system is armed when the tailgate is not fully closed,

three warning double beeps will be heard, and the doors will

not be locked. Opening a door in this instance will trigger the

alarm.

iii) If one transmitter is used to disarm the alarm, and a second

transmitter to re-arm, a system test mode will be initiated,

and operational variations will occur. Allow an undisturbed

period of 2 minutes to elapse to restore normal transmitter

operation.

When fully armed, after a settling period of 40 seconds, the

alarm will be triggered by any of the following actions:

Interruption of the car battery power supply or siren cables.

Energising the ignition circuit ('hot wiring').

- Opening a door;

- Opening the tailgate;

Movement detected within the cabin (unless de-selected).

If the alarm is triggered, the hazard warning lamps will flash

and the wailing siren will sound for a period of approximately 30

seconds before closing down and resetting, ready for any further

triggering input. If a trigger is continuously present (e.g. door left

open), the alarm will repeat for a maximum of eight 30 second

cycles before excluding the triggering sensor for the remainder

of the armed period.

To silence the siren, press once the central, disarm button on

the transmitter key. If necessary, press a second time to disarm

the alarm. Note that if the vehicle battery has been disabled, it

will not be possible to interrupt the siren until completion of the

eight cycle sequence.
