It is an anti-theft system and prevents the unintentional
unlocking of the vehicle.If the vehicle is unlocked and none of the doors (including the tailgate) are
opened within 30 seconds, the vehicle will be re-locked automatically.Automatic speed dependent locking and unlocking system*
This is a safety system which prevent the access to the vehicle
from the outside when it is running (for example, when
stopped at a traffic light).Locking
The doors lock automatically after exceeding 15 km/h. The tailgate locks
automatically after exceeding 6 km/h.
If the vehicle is stopped and any of the doors opened, when the vehicle starts
again and above the mentioned speed, all doors will lock again.
Unlocking
On removing the ignition key, the vehicle returns to its status prior to self-
locking.
Each door can be unlocked and opened independently from the inside (for
example, when a passenger gets out of it). To do so, simply operate the lever
inside the door.

WARNING
The door handles must not be operated when the vehicle is moving: the
door would open.
Note
If the airbags are triggered during an accident, the vehicle is unlocked, except
for the boot. It is possible to lock the vehicle from inside with the central
locking, after turning the ignition off and back on again.

If any of the doors or the bonnet are open, they will not be included in the
protection zones of the vehicle when the alarm is connected. If the door or the
bonnet are subsequently closed, they will be automatically included in the
protection areas of the vehicle and the indicators will flash accordingly when
the doors close.•The indicator light will flash twice on opening and deactivating the alarm..•The indicator light will flash once on closing and activating the alarm.
When does the system trigger an alarm?

78Interior monitor and anti-towing alarm*
Monitoring or control function incorporated in the anti-theft
alarm* which detects unauthorized vehicle entry by means of
ultrasound.Activation
– It is connected automatically when the anti-theft alarm is acti-
vated.
Deactivation
– Open the vehicle with the key, either mechanically
8) or by
pressing the button on the remote control.
– Press the button on the remote control twice. The volumetric sensor and tilt sensors will be deactivated. The alarm system
remains activated.
The interior monitor and the anti-towing alarm are automatically switched on
again next time the vehicle is locked.
The interior monitor and anti-towing alarm (tilt sensor) are automatically
switched on when the anti-theft alarm is switched on. In order to activate it,
all the doors and the tailgate must be closed.
If you wish to disconnect the interior monitor and the anti-towing system, it
must be done each time that the vehicle is locked; if not, they will connect
automatically.
The interior monitor and the anti-towing system should be disconnected if
animals are left inside the locked vehicle (otherwise, their movements will trigger the alarm) or when, for example, the vehicle is transported or has to
be towed with only one axle on the ground.
False alarms
The interior monitor only operates correctly if the vehicle is completely
closed. Please observe legal requirements when doing so.
The following cases may cause a false alarm:
•opened windows (partially or fully)•panoramic glass roof/sunblind open (partially or completely).•movement of objects inside the vehicle, such as loose papers, items
hanging from the rear view mirror (air fresheners), etc.Note
•If the vehicle is relocked and the alarm is activated without the volumetric
sensor function, relocking will activate the alarm with all its functions, except
the volumetric sensor. This function is reactivated when the alarm is switched
on again, unless it is deliberately switched off.•If the alarm has been triggered by the volumetric sensor, this will be indi-
cated by a flashing of the indicator on the driver's door. The flash is different
to the flash indicating the alarm is activated.•The vibration of a mobile phone left inside the vehicle may cause the inte-
rior monitor alarm to trigger, as both sensors react to movements and shakes
inside the vehicle.•If on activating the alarm, any door or the tailgate is open, only the alarm
will be activated. The interior monitor and the anti-towing system will only be
activated once all the doors are closed (including the tailgate).
8)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.
