Alarm system*

The concept

The vehicle alarm system responds:

>

When a door, the hood or the luggage com-
partment lid is opened

>

To movements inside the vehicle: Interior
motion sensor, refer to page

25

>

When the car's inclination changes, for
instance if an attempt is made to jack it up
and steal the wheels or to raise it prior to
towing away

>

When there is an interruption in the power
supply from the battery

The alarm system signals unauthorized entry
attempts for a short time by means of:

>

An acoustic alarm

>

Switching on the hazard warning flashers

>

Flashing the high beams

Arming and disarming

When you lock or unlock the vehicle, either with
the remote control or at the door lock, the alarm
system is armed or disarmed at the same time.
You can open the luggage compartment lid
using the

button of the remote control even

if the alarm system is armed, refer to page

.

The lid is locked and monitored again as soon
as it is closed.
