Anti-theft alarm system*Description of anti-theft alarm system*
The anti-theft alarm triggers an alarm if unauthorised move-
ments are detected around the vehicle.The anti-theft alarm makes it more difficult to break into the vehicle or steal
it. Audible and visible alarms are triggered if the car is opened using the
mechanical key, or if unauthorised access is gained to the vehicle.
The anti-theft alarm system is automatically switched on when the vehicle is
locked. For this, either turn the key once in the lock towards the locking posi-
tion or press button on the radio-frequency remote control*. The
system is activated immediately and the indicator light located on the
driver’s door will flash along with the indicators indicating that the alarm and
the locking security system (double lock) have been turned on.
When the vehicle is locked the indicator lamps light up only if the alarm has
been correctly activated (all the protection zones should be correctly closed).
If any of the doors or the bonnet are open, when the alarm is connected these
will not be included in the protection zones of the vehicle. If the door or
bonnet is subsequently closed, they wi ll automatically be included in the
vehicle protection zones and the indicators will flash accordingly.
When does the system trigger an alarm?
The alarm system is triggered, in the locked vehicle, when:•
a door
•
the bonnet or
•
the tailgate
are unduly opened
•
or the ignition is switched on

opened using the driver's door key, you have 15 sec to insert the key in the
ignition lock and activate the ignition. Otherwise, the alarm will go off for 30
sec. and the ignition will be blocked.
In vehicles with keys without remote co ntrol it is necessary to wait 30 seconds
until the alarm stops. Then lock the vehicle using the key and repeat the
above process.
If the vehicle is opened at any door othe r than the driver's door or the tailgate
the alarm will go off for 30 seconds.Note

The interior monitor should be switched off, if for example animals are briefly
left in the locked vehicle. Their movements could otherwise trigger an alarm.
The interior monitor should also be deactivated if the windows are left
slightly open, otherwise the alarm may be triggered due to the effect caused
by wind entering the vehicle.
3)The time period from when the door is opened until the key is inserted in the contact
should not exceed 15 sec., otherwise the alarm will be triggered.
