until you hear a distinct click. You
have not fastened the seat belt

pull it sharply or if the vehicle is on a slope.

on the adjuster and move as necessary.
SEAT BELT REMINDER WARNING
The occupant protection system will
only provide optimum protection
when you use the seat belt properly.
The seat belt reminder warning
lamp illuminates and an audible
warning will sound if the driver's
or front seat passenger's seat belt has
not been fastened and the vehicle
exceeds a relatively low speed. It will also
illuminate if the driver's or front seat
passenger's seat belt is unfastened when
the vehicle is moving. The audible warning
will go off after five minutes but the seat
belt reminder warning lamp will remain on
until the driver's or front seat passenger's
seat belt is fastened.

ARMING THE ALARM

vehicle is locked and acts as a deterrent
to unauthorised persons who attempt to
open the doors, bonnet or luggage
compartment, or remove the audio
system.
The alarm sounds for 30 seconds if an
unauthorised person opens a door, the
luggage compartment or the bonnet. The
hazard flasher lights will flash for five
minutes.
Any attempt to start the engine without a
valid key or to remove the audio system
sounds the alarm again.

when the bonnet, luggage compartment
and all doors are closed.

if all windows are completely closed.
In addition to this, the sensors
located in the interior lamp unit must not

vehicle. This system acts as a deterrent against
unauthorised intrusion by sensing any
movement within the vehicle. Unauthorised entry into the vehicle’s
interior will trigger the alarm in the same
way as the anti-theft system.
The sensors are located in the interior
lamp unit.
