Alarm system

The concept
The enabled alarm system reacts to the follow‐
ing:
▷ Opening of a door, the hood, or the tail‐
gate/split door.
▷ Movements inside the vehicle.
▷ Changes in the vehicle tilt, e.g., during at‐
tempts to steal a wheel or tow the car.
▷ Interruptions in battery voltage.
Depending on the market-specific version, the
alarm system briefly signals unauthorized entry
attempts by:
▷ By sounding an acoustic alarm.
▷ By switching on the hazard warning system.
Tilt alarm sensor
The tilt of the vehicle is monitored.
The alarm system responds in situations such as
attempts to steal a wheel or tow the car.
Interior motion sensor
For the interior motion sensor to function prop‐
erly, the windows and the glass sunroof must
be closed.
Avoiding unintentional alarms
The tilt alarm sensor and interior motion sensor
can be switched off together, such as in the fol‐
lowing situations:
▷ In duplex garages.
▷ During transport on car-carrying trains, at
sea or on a trailer.
