ALARM
System which protects and provides
a deterrent against the theft of your
vehicle. It provides two types of pro-
tection, exterior and interior, as well
as a self-protection function.
Exterior perimeter protection
The system detects opening of the
vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if anyone tries
to enter the vehicle by forcing a door,
the boot or the bonnet.
Interior volumetric protection
The system detects any variation in the
volume in the passenger compartment.
The alarm is triggered if anyone breaks
a window or moves inside the vehicle.
If you wish to leave a pet in the vehicle
or a window partially open, deactivate
the interior volumetric protection.
Self-protection function
The system detects the putting out
of service of its components.
The alarm is triggered if anyone tries
to put the wires of the siren, the central
control or the battery out of service.
Do not make any modifi cations to
the alarm system, this could cause
malfunctions. Locking the vehicle with full

Triggering of the alarm
If the indicator lamp on button A
fl ashes rapidly, this indicates that
the alarm was triggered during
your absence. When the ignition is
switched on, this fl ashing stops im-
mediately.
To avoid triggering the alarm when
washing your vehicle, lock it using
the key in the driver's door lock. Failure of the remote control
Locking the vehicle without
activating the alarm

 Lock or deadlock the vehicle using
the key in the driver's door lock.
Automatic activation *
This is indicated by sounding of the
siren and fl ashing of the direction
indicators for approximately thir-
ty seconds.
After it has been triggered, both
types of protection are again opera-
tional.
If the alarm is triggered ten times in
succession, the eleventh time will
result in it becoming inactive.

 Unlock the vehicle using the key
in the driver's door lock.

 Open the door; the alarm is trig-
gered.

 Switch on the ignition; the alarm
stops.
Malfunction
When the ignition is switched on,
lighting of the indicator lamp on
button A for ten seconds indicates
a siren fault.

dealer.

boot is closed, the alarm is activated
automatically.
