Automatic alarm activation
This function prevents you accidentally leav-
ing the car without the alarm on.
If none of the doors or the tailgate are
opened within two minutes of disarming the
alarm (and the car has been unlocked with
the remote control), the alarm is automatical-
ly rearmed, and the car is locked at the same
time.
Automatic alarm activation
In certain countries (e.g. Belgium, Israel) the
alarm is activated after a certain delay if the
driver's door was opened and closed but the
car was not re-locked.
Deactivating a triggered alarm
– Press the UNLOCK button on the remote
control or insert the key in the ignition
switch.
Confirmation is given by two short flashes
from the direction indicators.
Alarm signals
When the alarm is triggered, the following
happens:
• A siren sounds for no more than
25 seconds. The siren has its own battery
which is used if the car battery has insuffi-
cient charge or is disconnected.
• All direction indicators flash for five min-
utes or until the alarm is deactivated.
Temporary deactivation of the
deadlocks and alarm detectors
To prevent the alarm being triggered errone-
ously, such as with a dog in the car or during
a ferry journey, the movement and tilt detec-
tors can be disengaged.
– Insert the key in the ignition switch, turn it
to position II and then back to position I
or 0.
– Press the button.
The light remains illuminated until the car is
locked using the key or remote control.
A message remains on the display as long as
the key remains in the ignition switch. The
temporary disengagement is deactivated

when the ignition is switched on. If the car
has deadlocks, then these are also re-en-
gaged at the same time. See page 105.
