Operating the alarm
First make sure all the doors are closed.
The alarm is armed by pressing button A on the remote control.
With the alarm armed, the protections are active after 5 seconds (perimeter) and 45 seconds (volumetric).
When the alarm is armed (on standby), any intrusion will trigger the siren for 30 seconds, accompanied by the direction indicators lighting up.
The alarm then goes back on standby, but the trigger-ing remains memorised and is signalled by the rapid fl ashing of the warning lamp on control 1 after you have deactivated the alarm with a press on the unlocking button B. The fl ashing stops when you switch on the ignition.
The siren is also triggered if there is a cutting of the electrical supply. To stop it, restore the electrical supply then press on the unlocking button B.Note:If you want to lock your vehicle without arming the alarm, just lock with the key only.If you lock your vehicle and a door, or the boot, is still open, the central locking does not operate but the alarm will arm itself after approx. 45 seconds.Note: The siren is automatically deactivated (for exam-ple for disconnecting the battery) as soon as the vehicle is unlocked using the remote control.

Electric operation
The switches on the console allow the vehicle’s electric windows to be controlled from the driver’s posi-tion.
Sequential control on driv-er's side
An action on the control to the fi rst notch causes a window movement which stops as soon as the control is released.
An action on the control to the second notch causes the window to close or open completely, a fur-ther press on the control stops the movement.Note: The window controls also operate for a limited time after you have switched off the ignition.
ALWAYS PAY ATTENTION TO WHERE CHILDREN ARE WHEN OPENING OR CLOSING THE WINDOWS
Always remove the ignition key when leaving the vehicle, even if for a short time.
If there is an obstruction when operating a window, you must immedi-ately reverse the window movement. To do that, reverse th e position of the control concerned.
If the driver is operating the electric window controls for passengers, he or she should ensure that no passenger is obstructing th e window from closing.
The driver must ensure that the electric windows are use d properly by passengers.
Anti-pinch on driver's window
An anti-pinch device stops the window from rising. If it meets an obstacle, it goes back down.
After a battery disconnection or if there has been a malfunction, you have to re-initialise the anti-pinch function:Use the control to fully open the window, then reclose. It will rise only a few centimetres.
Press again on the control until the window closes fully.
During this operation, the anti-pinch protection does not work.
