Alarm system
*
The concept
The vehicle alarm system responds:
> When a door, the hood, the tailgate
or the rear window is opened
> To movement inside the vehicle (inte-
rior motion sensor)
> To variations in the vehicle's tilt angle
such as those occurring during
attempts to steal the wheels or tow
the vehicle
> To interruption of battery voltage.
The system responds to unauthorized
vehicle entry and attempted theft by
simultaneously activating the following:
> Sounding an acoustic alarm for
30 seconds
> The hazard warning flashers are acti-
vated for approx. five minutes
> Flashing the high beams on and off
in rhythm with the hazard warning
flashers.
To arm and disarm the alarm
system
When the vehicle is locked or unlocked
via the driver's door lock or with the
remote control, the alarm system is also
simultaneously armed or disarmed.
You can have different acknowl-
edgment signals set to confirm
arming and
disarming.<
You can use the button on the remote
control to open the rear window even
when the alarm is armed, refer to
page 30. The alarm will start monitoring
the window again as soon as it is
reclosed.
