mechanism
Please note the following when the vehicle is locked with the remote control key or with the vehi-cle key in the driver door lock cylinder:
• The anti-theft alarm and the interior monitoring system are immediately activated. All turn signals flash briefly to confirm activation.
Anti-theft alarm
rflt First read and observe the introductory 1..-.L::.U information and safety warnings & on page 39.
The anti-theft alarm makes it more difficult to break into the vehicle or steal it.
The anti-theft alarm system is automatically activa-ted when the vehicle is locked.
When does the system trigger an alarm?
The anti-theft alarm will sound an acoustic alarm for approximately 30 seconds and trigger a visible warning for up to 5 minutes if any of the following unauthorised actions are performed while the vehi-cle is locked:
• Mechanical unlocking of the vehicle with the ve-hicle key and failure to switch on the ignition within 15 seconds
• A door is opened.
A WARNING
Take care when using the SAFELOCK mecha-nism to avoid accidents or injuries.
• Never leave anybody in the vehicle if the vehicle has been locked using the remote control key. The doors can no longer be opened from the inside once the SAFELOCK mechanism is activated.
• Locked doors make it more difficult for emergency service personnel to gain access to the vehicle and provide assistance when needed. In an emergency, people locked in-side the vehicle would not be able to leave the vehicle by unlocking the doors.
• The tailgate is opened.
• The ignition is switched on using an invalid key.
• Movement inside the vehicle (in vehicles with interior monitoring).
• The vehicle is towed (vehicles with anti-tow alarm).
• The vehicle is lifted (vehicles with anti-tow alarm).
• Transportation of the vehicle on a ferry or train.
• Disconnection of the vehicle battery (only an acoustic alarm)
Switching off the alarm
Unlock the vehicle using the release button on the remote control key or insert the ignition key into the ignition lock. 11>-

m Due to the current legislation on the Israel W market, the acoustic warning signals are de-activated there.

m The anti-theft alarm will not be activated if W the vehicle is locked from the Inside using the central locking button @.
m If you unlock the driver door mechanically us-L!J ing the vehicle key, only the driver door is un-locked, and not the whole vehicle. The SAFELOCK mechanism on all doors is not deactivated and the central locking button is not activated until you switch on the ignition (however the doors will not be unlocked).
m The anti-theft alarm will not function correctly W if the vehicle battery is weak or discharged.
m lt is not possible to include the trailer in the W anti-theft alarm system.

Fig. 25 Next to the driver seat: button for switch-ing off the interior monitoring system and anti-tow alarm.
r-f"n First read and observe the introductory information and safety warnings & on page 39.
The interior monitoring system will trigger an alarm if movement is detected inside the vehicle when the vehicle is locked.
The anti-tow alarm will be triggered if the vehicle is lifted.
Switching on the interior monitoring system and anti-tow alarm
Lock the vehicle using the remote control key. When the anti-theft alarm is switched on, the interi-or monitoring system and the anti-tow alarm are al-so active.
Switching off the interior monitoring system and anti-tow alarm
The orientation lighting in the =>Fig. 25 button must be lit up when switching the systems off. To switch the orientation lighting on, remove the key from the ignition or open one of the doors.
Before the journey
• Press the =>Fig. 25 button. A yellow indicator lamp will light up in the button until the vehicle is locked.
• Close all doors and the tailgate.
• Lock the vehicle using the remote control key. The interior monitoring system and anti-towing alarm are switched off until the next time the vehi-cle is locked.
The interior monitoring system and anti-tow alarm should therefore be switched off before the vehicle is locked in any of the following, or similar, situa-tions:
• If any people or animals are to remain inside the vehicle for a short period & =>page 39.
• If the vehicle is to be loaded onto another vehi-cle.
• If the vehicle is being transported (e.g. on a fer-ry).
• If the vehicle is going to be towed with one axle off the ground.
• If the vehicle is to be parked in a car wash.
Risk of false alarm
Interior monitoring can only work properly if the ve-hicle is completely closed. Comply with legal regu-lations. A false alarm can be triggered in any of the following circumstances:
• If one or more windows are fully or partly open.
• If the slidingflilting roof is completely or partly open.
• If items such as loose pieces of paper and items attached to the Interior mirror (e.g. air-fresh-eners) are left in the vehicle.
• If a mobile telephone that is left in the vehicle vibrates. 11>-
