m that the vehicle has been correctly locked.
If the vehicle is locked by pr
essing the button and some doors or the boot lid are
not closed, the turn signal lights flash only after closing.
WARNING
If the vehicle is locked from the outside and the safe securing system is acti-vated, there must not be any person in the vehicle as it is then not possible to open either a door or a window from the inside. The locked doors make it more difficult for rescuers to get into th
e vehicle in an emergency - hazard!
Note
•
Operate the radio remote control only when
the doors and boot lid are closed and
you have visual contact with the vehicle.•
Once in the car, you must
not press the lock button
of the radio remote control
before inserting the key into the ignition lock in order to avoid the car being inadvert- ently locked and the alarm system* being switched on. Should this happen, press the unlock button

g the remote control system then it is
possible that the code in the key and the co
ntrol unit in the vehicle are no longer
synchronised. This can occur when the buttons on the radio-operated key are actuated a number of times outside of the operative
range of the equipment or the battery on
the remote control was replaced. This means it is necessary to
synchronise the code as follows:
•
Press any button on the remote control.
•
pressing of the button means that the d
oor will unlock with the key within 1
minute.
Anti-theft alarm system*DescriptionThe anti-theft alarm system increases the level of protection against people seeking to break into the vehicle. The system triggers audible and visual warning signals if an attempt is made to break into the vehicle. How is the alarm
system activated?
The anti-theft alarm system is activated au
tomatically when the vehicle is locked with
the key on the closed driver's door or by us
ing the radio remote control. It is activated
30 seconds after locking the door. How is the alarm system deactivated? The anti-theft alarm system is deactivated if
the vehicle is unlocked by only using the
radio remote control. The vehicle is automati
cally locked again if the vehicle is not
opened within 30 seconds after reactivating the anti-theft alarm system. Once you unlock the vehicle by inserting the ke
y into the driver door you then have to
insert the key into the ignition lock and sw
itch the ignition on within 15 seconds after
opening the door in order to deactivate the anti-theft alarm system. The
alarm will be
triggered
if you do
not switch on
the ignition within 15 seconds.
When is the alarm triggered? The following security areas of
the locked vehicle are monitored:
•
Bonnet,
•
Boot lid,
•
Doors,
•
Ignition lock,
•
Angle of the vehicle*
⇒page 47,
•
Vehicle interior*
⇒page 47,
•
A drop in voltage of the on-board power supply.
An alarm is immediately triggered if either of the two battery terminals is disconnected while the anti-theft alarm system is activated.
