Arming the anti-theft alarm

Arming the anti-theft alarm




General

Press the LOCK button to arm the anti-theft alarm. When the button is pressed, the signal is acknowledged by the car's direction indicators flashing once. The flash/sound acknowledgement for this function is programmable.


The car's anti-theft alarm is now armed and all the doors are locked with the central locking system. The boot lid/tailgate is also armed if it is closed.

When the alarm has been armed, the LED will light up for 10 seconds. During this time, the so-called delay time, the alarm is not armed and the passenger door (not the driver's door), boot lid/tailgate or bonnet can be open without setting off the alarm.

If the driver's door is opened during the delay time, the alarm is disarmed automatically. After the delay time, the LED changes from continuously lit to flashing which indicates that the alarm is armed.


Important

If the driver's door is open or the ignition on, the alarm cannot be armed or the car locked/unlocked. However, the alarm can be disarmed if a door is open.


Note

The arming delay for the glass-breakage sensor and tilt sensor is 15 seconds.
