Anti-Theft Alarm System
The anti-theft alarm can be armed or
disarmed with the master key (identi
fied by red dot) by locking or unlocking
either front door or the trunk.
Operation
Once the alarm system has been
armed, the exterior vehicle lamps will
flash and the horn will sound intermit
tently when someone tries to:
open a door
open the trunk
open the hood
remove the radio
switch on or bridge the ignition
circuit
step on the brake pedal
raise the vehicle, i. e. towing away.
The alarm will last approximately
150 seconds in the form of blinking ex
terior lamps. At the same time an ad
ditional horn will sound intermittently
for 60 seconds, pause for 30 seconds,
and repeat for another 60 seconds.
The alarm will stay on even if the arm
ing element (a door, for example) is
immediately closed.
Note:
If the radio is removed from its mount
ing when the anti-theft alarm is armed
the radio will automatically be render
ed inoperative!
To avoid setting off the alarm uninten
tionally, do not arm the alarm system
in the following situations; e.g.: Auto
ferry, auto train, when hitching/un
hitching a trailer, or heavy loading/
unloading. For this purpose use the
valet key and not the master key for
locking the vehicle.
Special Function
To activate the anti-theft alarm from
the trunk, turn the master key in the
trunk lock completely to the right and
pull it out in this position.
If you want the alarm system to be
armed at the trunk only, turn the mas
ter key in the trunk lock completely to
the right and pull it out in that position.
Then disarm the rest of the vehicle by
unlocking either front door with the
master key. You can now lock or un
lock the doors and filler flap, as well as
start the engine, using the valet key.
Do not give the master key to an un
authorized person. We recommend
that you carry the flat key safely with
you so that it is always handy. This
key has the same function as the
master key.
