Alarm system
The concept
The vehicle alarm system responds:
> When a door, the hood or the lug-
gage compartment lid is opened,
> To movement inside the vehicle
(interior motion sensor)
> To variations in the vehicle tilt sensor
such as those occuring during at-
tempts 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 acoustical alarm for
30 seconds
> Activating the hazard warning flash-
ers for approx. five minutes
> Flashing the high beams on and off in
sync with the hazard warning flashers.
To activate and deactivate the
alarm system
When the vehicle is locked or unlocked
via a door lock or with the remote con-
trol, the alarm system is also simulta-
neously armed or disarmed.
The interior motion sensor and tilt alarm
sensor are activated approx. 30 sec-
onds after you have finished locking the
vehicle.
The system indicates that it has been
correctly armed by switching on the haz-
ard warning flashers for a single cycle
and by emitting an acoustical signal.
You can have different signals set
as acknowledgment messages for
arming and disarming.<
Indicator lamp displays
The indicator lamp is located in the
inside rear view mirror's rotary knob.
> When the indicator lamp flashes con-
tinuously, the system is armed
> The indicator lamp flashes during
arming: the door(s), the hood or lug-
gage compartment lid are not com-
pletely closed. Even if you do not
close the alerted area, the remaining
areas are deadlocked, and the indi-
cator lamp flashes continuously after
10 seconds. However, the interior
motion sensor is not activated
> The indicator lamp goes out during
disarming: no manipulation or
attempted intrusions have been
detected in the period since the
system was armed
